Accurate hand evaluation is critically important to reaching the right contracts in Bridge. Yet, for over 75 years now, hand evaluation has essentially relied on M. Work's 4 3 2 1 Honor point count and C. Goren's Distribution point count - but both counts are seriously flawed and inaccurate. In this book, the author addresses their deficiencies and identifies all the appropriate corrections to make to them to obtain an optimal point count in super accuracy, and also introduces revolutionary new findings. All required corrections are statistically validated and precisely quantified.8, 9 and 10 card Fits are quantified and count for ALL suits and ALL contracts, including No Trump contracts ! Misfits are quantified, including a misfit in a NT contract ! Wasted Honor points, opposite a singleton in partner's hand, are also specifically quantified. The book illustrates the validity and effectiveness of the optimal point count through over 160 example hands and compares it to other point count evaluation methods. Reading this book will let you be the judge, and applying the optimal point count is sure to substantially improve your bidding.
