If there's demand, I'm happy to revisit popular topics from this summer's lesson series like Discarding Losers, Ruffing Losers, Opener's Rebid, Responder's Rebid, Cuebid Raises, New Minor Forcing, and Fourth Suit Forcing.
Have a specific topic in mind? Email me your suggestions – I'm open to requests!
Looking forward to seeing you at the tables!
