Udemy - Reverse Bidding

What you'll learn
The learners will be able to clearly see how to show a strong hand to their partner in their second bid. The 2nd bid done by an opener is the most important!

The 3 examples on video as well as the examples given in the notes are hugely helpful .
Requirements
A basic understanding of bridge is required as this is used by more intermediate players.
Description
This simple technique (some may even call it a convention) takes away the JUMP SHIFT by the opener to show a strong hand. A reverse moves forward in the bidding , not actually backwards and allows the openers re-bid to describe the shape of their hand to their partner , as well as give their partner a clear point count. We must remember that bridge is a card game that is played without speaking so our bidding box is the only tool used to describe your shape and points to your partner. Knowing a reverse is a winner. Its easy and quick to learn. Once your partner has a clear understanding of your point count (as explained by doing this reverse bid), they are then able to add their points to yours and find the best possible contract level. Bidding to the correct contract level benefits both parties and allows you to achieve the maximum number of points by achieving your tricks based on your contract level. If you do not find the correct contract level when playing duplicate bridge (at club level), your partnership may achieve a weak percentage based on everyone's else in the room that played the same board.
