Learn Bridge: The Bridge Centre Podcast
The Bridge Centre
Topics: Games
Free contract bridge lessons you can listen to. Helen has played for longer than she'll admit on a recording; Tom has just signed up for beginners' class. Season 1, Bridge Homework, follows the six-week Learn Bridge course week by week. Season 2, Next Steps in Bridge, is for improvers: hand evaluation, competitive bidding, conventions, declarer play, opening leads, defence and slam bidding. Every episode has a written lesson, rules to remember and a full transcript at victorianbridgecentre.com.au. The system is Standard American (five-card majors, 15–17 1NT), played the way it's played at Australian duplicate clubs. Helen and Tom are fictional hosts voiced with text-to-speech.
