{"product_id":"25-steps-to-learning-21-paul-thurston-9781894154468","title":"25 Steps to Learning 2\/1","description":"Another title in the best-selling '25' series, using the same popular format. Over the last fifteen or so years, the 2\/1 Game Forcing bidding method has gained substantial popularity, but for various reasons it is not taught in beginner classes. This book is therefore designed for players who are familiar with Standard bidding and are interested in switching to the 2\/1 method. It covers basic concepts as well as the differences between 2\/1 and Standard auctions, and includes a discussion of more advanced ideas and conventions that fit particularly well with 2\/1 methods. Existing books on this topic (notably by Max Hardy and Mike Lawrence) are too advanced and\/or too technical for this level of player.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Thurston\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1894154460\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781894154468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Master Point Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 7.30w x 0.50d","brand":"Paul Thurston","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44051150733567,"sku":"9781894154468","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8653cb27-06b6-49e6-bc33-c8c6356db439.jpg?v=1685011391","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/25-steps-to-learning-21-paul-thurston-9781894154468","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
