I wonder... if 2+2 will ever publish books or articles from Audrey Grant.

I've got a lot of good stuff to write about bridge. I've previously written a number of technical articles on hand evaluation and re-valuation as the bidding progresses. But poker has taken all my time recently and I can't help but thinking that the market for bridge books is pretty small. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

That's what Mike Lawrence said. When asked why he didn't write more bridge books. Mike said no one buys them.

I recently moved to a new city. Strange enough, I have not found any Poker Rooms yet, but I did find a Bridge Room in a legal unit behind a local strip mall.

My only worry, is the power of collusion aspect in this game.

did you know that Stayman's partner Rapee actually invented the Stayman convention? Stayman wrote about it.

I have no idea how this thread got so off topic, but now that 3 people have PM'd me about bridge stuff that I've written, I'll post it here too if anyone else actually plays a card game other than poker.

The following links are a series of articles I wrote on hand evaluation on RGB.

Part 1 - How shape evaluation changes when partner bids
Part 2 - How honor evaluation changes when partner bids
Part 3 - TSP evaluation, my attempt at an accurate point system
Part 4 - How shape/honor evaluations change when opponents bid

I also ran a "Bidding System Design Contest" a few years ago that many people have said to me was the best thread on RGB they've read. That's here.
