Alterman Big Club (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781475977554)

Bridge is one of the few games you don't have to play for money to enjoy. It's a fun game played by people who want to have fun, but often hide that fact with a serious face and demeanor. Bridge, like good love making, takes time, effort, patience, concentration, and energy and is good for your mind, body, and soul. In Alterman Big Club, author Dr. Stanley B. Alterman presents a new world of bridge-the Alterman Big Club (ABC)-that enhances the current aspects of the game you now enjoy eliminating complexity and adding constructive precision.

Developed over the last five years, Alterman Big Club details a simple, novel system that bridge players can use to obtain above-average results. He uses his personal experience and research as a starting place for an insider's guide that presents some history of playing systems and insights into the key strategies used by successful professional players. He invokes the KISS (keep it simple stupid) principle to allow players to learn the ABC system as easy as they did their ABCs.

Alterman Big Club shows how ABC is a precise system marked by with natural, simple bidding rules and none of the complexity and ambiguities of Precision or Standard American bridge bidding systems.
