Bridge Lessons Learn to Play Bridge Lesson 2- 1 Level Opening Bids

I am so appreciative of your producing these videos. I loved bridge when I was younger and haven't played in years, but a good friend and I are going to embark on it and this is the perfect tutorial for us. Thank you for doing this.

Thank you for the excellent tutorials! I haven't played in 29 years and am getting ready to play again.

REALLY GOOD TUTORIAL.

Thank you for a really good tutorial. Appreciate your efforts.

Great teaching. Thank you

Thank you for putting these videos together! My sisters and I have learned the game from you!

Bottoms Up! My kind of lesson. Well done.

Is there a cheat sheet of these rules available? I tried playing live after watching lessons 1-3 a few times and realize how hard it is to remember everything (or anything). 😅

Hi Jane. Thank you so much for your unexpected reply.
Your videos are so informative, and easy to understand. I have learned so much from watching them.
I'm new to bridge, and find it difficult , but you have made it so easy. Thank you again. Louise

Excellent teaching. Thank you

Level two in beg bridge

Grateful to U for explaining so nicely

I’m a novice and I live and play bridge in California.
Is this Standard American bidding?
Your method of teaching really sticks in my head it’s great thx

Tops down is the same as leading your “longest and strongest suit.”

Why aren't you adding points for doubletons, singletons, and voids? Are there times when you are supposed to include those in your count and times you are not? I'm also reading that it is standard that to open one spade or heart, that you must have five spades or hearts.

Thank you-all your lessons are clear, repetitive (which is great for learners) and to the point.

Thank you! Awesome tutelage and lovely voice.

A hand with 5♣ and 4♥ you would bid 5♣ or should one bid major over minor?

I'm enjoying these lessons. You have the nicest voice. :)

Who are the 24 people that gave a thumb down ?????

Tho consecutive 4 card suit bid the higher one .if not touched bid the lower one .5 card suit bid the higher one whether it touched or not .one suit has 5 card or one has 6 bid the longest one whether it touched or not

in my hand i have i have 12 HCP n i have 4 spades n 4 hearts , what do i bid with ? Bottoms up or Tops down?

i have 13 HCP and my longest suit is CLUBS for can in Bid with my longest card even though its a MINOR? would love to hear from you. thank you

Hi Jane I just started learning bridge today. Your tutorials are fantastic. You are a marvelous teacher. The instructions are so clear and simple. I'm hooked already thanks to you.

hello Jane. thank you very much for your lessons. I cant get a hold of the web page to practice. Has it changed?

My partner bid 1NT but actually he had 12 points so he should have written 2NT.
Am I right? N I had no points but had a match, what should I have done..I bidded Pass. Did I do the right thing

Why the top down rule? If your partner doesn't respond couldn't you be left with a contract in a very weak suit?

Thanks so much. Your lessons have been very clear and understandable, much appreciated. The tops-down visual was indeed a bit disappointing, but I'll get over it.

Lesson4

These are wonderful tutorials! I haven’t played in 35 years and want to learn again! I am in USA; will the Acol system work for me? Your tutorials are the absolute best I have found, and I do not want to change!

Hello Jane - I live in Wales, UK and recently started learning bridge; I am enjoying your online lessons.🙂
Are "Bottoms Up" and Tops Down" applicable in the UK ACOL system? Thanks

Did you take the website down because it will no longer upload in Canada? We were so very impressed with the site and her teaching approach. Dang ….thanks for video’s nonetheless 🎉😊
