BOOK 4: COMPOUND SQUEEZES

SYNOPSIS:

This is the fourth book in a series on Bridge Squeezes.  It covers the positions where one defender is squeezed in three suits and the other in two.  Such positions are closely related to the double squeeze (Book 2), triple squeeze (Book 3), double clash squeeze (Book 2) and Double Guard squeeze (Book 5).   The author's analysis of this group develops the subject further than previous authors.  The twenty basic compound squeeze positions are analysed in the first six chapters.  The chapter on super compound squeezes is based on the original research by Don Kersey and correspondence with him.
