    I also look at playing high with Kx and Qx combinations and when it is right to do that.

    In my book, Card Play Complete, I'm right with you. If declarer is simply developing a suit, play low. Split only when you need a fast trick or need to switch to another suit.

    You have 7 spades not 6 on the first few hands but you keep on saying 6.

      @@clintfromcanada2480 oops... you are right... in fairness it wasn't really the point of the lesson... although I was ducking on certain hands because I don't mind a switch or I have to lose one in that suit anyway and I'm hoping for 3-3 break. It's often good strategy to lose one in a suit early.

      @@johnworf Thanks for your speedy feedback. This was the first time I watched one of your videos. As a somewhat beginner Bridge player, I did enjoy and learn from it. I started playing bridge less than 6 years ago and have so much to learn. Yesterday, I posted my first 2 bridge videos, one is just a link to a Bridge quiz I created a while back. I use it weekly myself to help remember how to play suits. The second, I think is very good way of looking at finesses. I coined the term "finesse promotions" but I assume that I am not the first to do so. Below are the links. Your feedback on the finesse promotion video would be greatly appreciated, so that I can fix any bad info from being spread.

      @@clintfromcanada2480 cheers. I will take a look and subscribe too. I have a website too:www.stellar-bridge.co.uk/free-bridge-lessons/ full course links on there... this is an acol course... but a lot applies to whatever system you play.

      Not surprised because you’re incompetent. Real teachers use the kind of whiteboard that hangs on a wall regardless of how they’re presenting. Maybe then you’ll learn how to count to 13.
