Winning At Matchpoints Av Bill Treble

A common form of pairs scoring in the game of bridge is by "matchpoints". On each board, a partnership scores two matchpoints for each other partnership that scored fewer points with the same cards, and one point for each other partnership that scored the same number of points. Most players would agree that matchpoints is harder than IMPs ("international match point scoring") - it is certainly different.Yet many players approach the two forms of scoring in the same way. In this book, the author explains the differences in approach, the whys and wherefores of the right way to bid, play and defend at matchpoint scoring for optimum results.
