Most bridge players find squeeze play the hardest technique to learn. It has unavoidable technical aspects that for many make it impenetrable. In this award-winning book, the reader is taken slowly and carefully through the basics, and by the end will be confident that they too can execute simple squeezes at the table. This second edition reflects many enhancements and improvements made to the original version, which was the 2006 American Bridge Teachers Association Book of the Year.

A squeeze in bridge occurs when a player is forced to make a discard that is damaging to his hand. To the squeezed player, this may seem like a stroke of bad luck, but a squeeze can be an easy and calculated offensive strategy. Recognizing the opportunity and then successfully implementing the strategy takes timing and smart play. Simple Squeezes provides the tools to achieve both. The results will be less bad luck and more winning hands for beginners and intermediates alike.

"Many players go through life thinking that squeeze play is complex, esoteric, and certainly beyond their capabilities. This book demonstrates that basic squeeze play is within anyone's grasp, and that even double squeezes are not unthinkable. Finally, the authors discuss how a defender can avoid being squeezed--a topic that has rarely received much ink."--Back cover

Squeezes. Just the word strikes fear into the heart of many bridge players. But simple squeezes are actually quite simple. The single or simple squeeze accounts for 90% of squeezes and 90% of this book deals with simple squeezes. If you wish to become more than just a mediocre bridge player mastering the techniques of basic simple squeeze play is a must. In any session of bridge of twenty or so deals, the opportunity of some form of squeeze invariably arises on three to four deals even if unrecognized. Don't worry about the other types. They are usually only discovered in post-mortem analysis. The purpose of this book is to guide you thru what you can easily master. You will find that the feeling of executing your first squeeze is a "once in a lifetime thrill" at the table.
