Book excerpt: MATCHPOINT DEFENSE - Kick it up a Notch is a new book for duplicate players. MATCHPOINT DEFENSE teaches techniques that go beyond the basics that are used on every hand. Many of the book's forty-one hands are directly from club-level tournaments, so the reader gets to see that the techniques work and that good defense keeps moving daily scores upward.Excellent defense is much more important in duplicate than in Team-of-Four, Swiss Team, or Rubber Bridge. That's why MATCHPOINT DEFENSE is 100% about matchpoint defense. In matchpoint, every extra trick you get is golden. It doesn't matter whether you limit declarer's overtricks, set her contract, or cause an extra undertrick. GAME ON!MATCHPOINT DEFENSE explores topics like knowing which cards partner still has later in the hand, defensive carding to win that elusive last trick, and imagining declarer's plan so you can thwart it.

Download or read book Matchpoint Offense -- Kick it Up a Notch written by Walter F Toombs and published by . This book was released on 2020-05 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We play a lot of bridge that is scored in matchpoints, but much of what is published shows decisions that are appropriate for IMP games. Why? Well as Jerry Helms says in his popular Bridge Bulletin column (October 2020), "...higher-level players prefer IMP games because IMP games may have less randomness in the results." MATCHPOINT DEFENSE and MATCHPOINT OFFENSE are completely about decisions you make while playing duplicate scored in matchpoints - where every trick you get counts equally. it doesn't matter whether you are getting an overtrick, one less undertrick, or whether the trick makes or sets a contract.Anne Lund author and owner of the excellent site bridgeclues2.com, (written with Mike Lawrence), says: "Stuart Terry with his co-authors (Assserson and Toobs) presents this excellent two-book series that modifies players' defense and offense specifically to score better at duplicate bridge. Engaging hands and humorous prose accompany you as you capture one extra trick."MATCHPOINT DEFENSE is the rare book written completely about the next-level of defense. This book emphasizes building a picture of your partner's hand before the first card is played, in the middle-game, and in the end-game.MATCHPOINT OFFENSE shows the ways to get an extra trick when you are declarer. Lund writes: "Enjoy the quiz in the second section and learn how an expert visualizes the hand before the first card is played. See how well you do compared to others, while you dissect the hand with the authors in the post-mortem." MATCHPOINT OFFENSE also includes a complete 24- board tournament with extensive commentary.

Book Synopsis The Circuit by : Rowan Ricardo Phillips
Download or read book The Circuit written by Rowan Ricardo Phillips and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2018-11-20 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2019 PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing “The Circuit is the best sports book I've read in years, maybe ever.” —Rich Cohen, author of The Chicago Cubs and Monsters “As sports writing goes, The Circuit is unusual in the very best way. Rowan Ricardo Phillips writes with such fluidity, and packs the book with bursts of brilliance. This is a compulsively readable guide to one truly Homeric year of professional tennis.” —John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars An energetic, lyrical, genre-defying account of the 2017 tennis season. In The Circuit: A Tennis Odyssey, the award-winning poet—and Paris Review sports columnist—Rowan Ricardo Phillips chronicles 2017 as seen through the unique prism of its pivotal, revelatory, and historic tennis season. The annual tennis schedule is a rarity in professional sports in that it encapsulates the calendar year. And like the year, it’s divided into four seasons, each marked by a final tournament: the Grand Slams. Phillips charts the year from winter’s Australian Open, where Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal renewed their rivalry in a match for the ages, to fall’s U.S. Open. Along the way, Phillips paints a new, vibrant portrait of tennis, one that captures not only the emotions, nerves, and ruthless tactics of the point-by-point game but also the quicksilver movement of victory and defeat on the tour, placing that sense of upheaval within a broader cultural and social context. Tennis has long been thought of as an escapist spectacle: a bucolic, separate bauble of life. The Circuit will convince you that you don’t leave the world behind as you watch tennis—you bring it with you.

Download or read book A Champion's Mind written by Pete Sampras and published by Crown. This book was released on 2009-05-26 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Champion’s Mind, the tennis great who so often exhibited visible discomfort with letting people “inside his head” finally opens up. An athletic prodigy, Pete resolved from his earliest playing days never to let anything get in the way of his love for the game. But while this determination led to tennis domination, success didn’t come without a price. Here for the first time Pete speaks freely about the personal trials he faced—including the death of a longtime coach and confidant—and the struggles he gutted his way through while being seemingly on top of the world. Among the book’s most riveting scenes are the devastating early loss that led Pete to make a monastic commitment to the game; fierce on-court battles with Andre Agassi; and the triumphant last match of Pete’s career at the finals of the 2002 U.S. Open. "A thoroughly compelling read that really probes the hard drive of a champion...All the emotion and insight that Sampras seemes reluctant to express during his playing days come spilling forth." —Jon Wertheim, senior writer, Sports Illustrated
