Greetings from Mike Lawrence

Welcome to my new website. Here you can do many things including reading bridge articles and acquiring bridge items. I hope you will prowl around. There are some things here you would not normally expect to find on a bridge site.  If, for instance, you visit the gallery, you will find a selection of my art. I promise this is something you haven’t seen before

PRODUCTS

Books

There is a world of good bridge books and bridge software available today to help new players develop their bridge game. I carry some of them here. Included are all of my bridge books and all of my bridge software. There are a few items created by other players that I think enough of to carry here as well. I won't advertise something if I don't think it has merit.

Mike Lawrence doesn’t teach rules to memorize; he schools his reader in beneficial habits and patterns of thought. After reading this book (repeatedly, gaining added benefit each time), my opponents began to think we were playing bridge with glass cards.

JOHN SMITH

Mike Lawrence must be a direct descendant of Sherlock Holmes! He uses every scrap of information available on any particular hand/auction, and uses these to arrive at the best bid to make. And it is because of this attention to detail that this (and his other books) are intended for those players in the intermediate or advanced category.

One of the five best bridge books to be shipwrecked with – Mike’s comprehensive work on Overcalls actually transcends the subject and gets near to the inner essence of bridge,

Jay T. Segarra

Lawrence gives insight into his own considerations when making bidding decisions and makes it clear that many decisions are not absolute. But following the logic and type of arguments he presents you will get more and more decisions right. I strongly recommend his books to every bridge player who aspires to improve his or her game.

Special Message from Mike

BRIDGE CLUES

Bridge clues is restructuring its site. This is a good thing but it has run into some issues. The free daily hands will restart around or before April 14. The work on the site will continue for perhaps two months or so. This is an educated guess. When it is done, the Bridge Clues site will have more to offer in a more efficient manner. Bridge Clues apologizes for the break in continuity. I am sad that so many have had to write to me to ask about the site but I’m very pleased that so many of you did write in. It means that Bridge Clues has a big following in the world of bridge.

NEW BOOK: Judgment at Bridge 2

Be A Better Player & More Difficult Opponent

In his original Judgment at Bridge, Mike Lawrence gave us a lot of great advice on how to think at the bridge table. In Judgment at Bridge 2, Mike continues with his guidance on how to approach the game.

Take Mike’s counsel and you will become a better player and a more difficult opponent.
