Take your competitive bidding to the next level with this four-session workshop series led by Keith Thompson. Based on Competitive Bidding by Mike Lawrence, this series is designed for advancing players who want to make more confident decisions when the auction becomes competitive.

Each session begins with a 20-minute instructional overview, followed by supervised play with coaching, hand review, and discussion. Participants will receive take-home summaries of key learning tips to reinforce the concepts covered in class. A make-up session will be offered if needed.

Course Topics:

• Lesson 1: Bidding After an Opponent's Takeout Double
• Lesson 2: Weak Two Bids & Preempts
• Lesson 3: The Splinter Bid
• Lesson 4: Passed Hand Bidding

This workshop is ideal for advancing players looking to strengthen their competitive bidding, improve partnership communication, and gain confidence in competitive auctions.
