Something very interesting is to read the comments people leave on each of his publications ….
Today we read on Twitter: Never signal with a card that might take a trick if you held on to it.
From Wednesday: Every player has head, “When in doubt, lead trump.” Obviously, if your other suits are “unleadable”, you would lead a trump but the above statement is not very helpful. I much prefer the following guideline: The best time to lead a trump is when you are NOT in doubt.”
Jan 6: When partner shows a strong 6-card suit, a singleton honor is good support.
Jan 4: Although an overcall doesn’t promise an opening bid, it doesn’t deny one either.
