Hi ,


We are in a fantastic 6S contract and an oportunity to cross-ruff. But, we better be careful how we travel back and forth between the two hands... how would you plan your play?


In this week's hand from the BBO Bridge Master series, Oliver Powell reminds us how important - even for more experienced players - taking time to counting your tricks before you start playing can be. Counting our winning tricks early lets us know we should hesitate before simply drawing trumps and caching our winners.
