02:15:10 Barbara S: Could we review board 8 02:19:46 Lynn Chapin: J/S in bridge speak is "jump-shift" -- you jumped and you shifted to a new suit. 02:23:05 Lynn Chapin: LESSON HANDS HERE -- please download :) 02:25:14 Lynn Chapin: DUMMY was SOUTH 02:25:25 Lynn Chapin: The contract was 3NT in the north. ;) 02:27:11 Lynn Chapin: Parity with the Dummy in the DEFENDER hand 02:27:36 Barbara S: Could we also review board 10, please. 02:27:38 Lynn Chapin: Keep those clubs so that the declarer can't easily set them all up. 02:28:29 Lynn Chapin: DEFENDER should try to keep parity with the known long suit(s) in the Declarer's or Dummy's hand. 02:30:34 Lynn Chapin: Jump Shift into Clubs... 18-21 points, and at least 5 spades and 4 clubs... I have at least 9 cards in the black suits. 02:32:34 Lynn Chapin: 🐼 In a NT contract, Declarer's plan starts by counting the known WINNERS. If you don't have enough winners to make your contract, the next step in the plan is to decide what you need to do to develop the needed tricks. 02:34:00 Lynn Chapin: TAKE YOUR TRICKS AND RUN …. means you're going to win now what you are due, and be sure you make the contract. 02:38:28 Lynn Chapin: The Rule of 6 - responder knows that there is no fit with partner, and responder has their own long suit. 02:41:53 Lynn Chapin: 🐸 LINDA -- MARTHA has her hand up. 🐸 02:46:51 Lynn Chapin: LINDA -- Barbara would like a review of hands 8 and 10, please :) 02:50:34 Lynn Chapin: When you have a "flat" 4-3-3-3, it's difficult to play NT. You should DOWNGRADE your hand with a completely balanced shape. 02:53:06 Joane Auger: Why would West open 1 H with only 1 pts 02:53:22 Joane Auger: oops with 11 HCP 02:55:08 Joane Auger: A hand with a singleton Ace how much is it worth 02:57:18 Lynn Chapin: Linda says when you have a singleton outside Ace in a trump contract, count it as 7 points. 02:57:39 Lynn Chapin: This is the archive where you can find all the videos and all the Community Game lessons: https://www.acbl.org/community-game-zoom-lessons/ 02:58:18 Lynn Chapin: WE USE THE SAME LNK FOR THIS LESSON EVERY TIME.
