	To Bid or Not to Bid: the Law of Total Tricks
	Larry Cohen
	Perhaps the single most influential bridge book of the 1990s!

The more trumps you have the higher you can afford to bid, even on hands without much high-card strength. In this book, Cohen covers the most common situations in competitive auctions and gives good rules of thumb for whether to bid on or defend. Your bidding judgment will improve overnight when you start following the Law!

	Sixpack

	Allan De Serpa has a new idea for how to ask for "keycards and queecards" (the 4 aces, and the 2 kings and 2 queens of the bid suits) after an auction like 1NT-2H(transfer)-2S-3H, and fit it all in below game. There is a similarity to Ken Rexford's Variable Keycard Blackwood, in that the responses are tuned to match the strength that partner has shown (2-4 keycards after a 1NT opening, for instance.)

	The Modern Losing Trick Count
	Ron Klinger
	If you are ready to look beyond the high-card point and refine your bidding judgment, this is the book for you. One of the great books on hand evaluation. The Losing Trick Count is a simple yet surprisingly accurate hand evaluation method, known in the 1930s but temporarily forgotten in the enthusiasm for point count bidding in the 40s and 50s. It has several advantages over HCP: it accounts naturally for the importance of having fitting rather than scattered honors; and because it forces you to think about counting tricks rather than points, it makes adjustments to the raw count simple -- instead of memorizing rules like subtracting a point for an unguarded face card, you simply count a card that the bidding tells you is unlikely to win a trick as a loser and vice versa!

	The Power of Pass
	Ron Klinger and Harold Schogger
	Bridge is a bidder's game, and the trend in recent years is all in favor of lighter openings, lighter responses, and wilder preempts.

	Multi-Landy: The Killer Defense vs. 1NT
	David Oakley
	Detailed coverage of the newest trend in overcalling your opponent's 1NT opening, taking over the ACBL by storm after it became a General Convention Chart method in 2015. Particularly important is the discussion of why it's OK to use an artificial double against a weak notrump — waiting for a penalty double is just too rare! Show your shape any time you have sound overcall values, and let your partner pass for penalties with a misfitting decent hand.

	When to Draw Trumps
	Adam Parrish
	The author introduces his process for counting losers and choosing a line of play. That's what drives our decision whether or not to pull trumps immediately: do we need the trumps for something else (like ruffing a loser?) do we need to take a fast discard before driving out a high trump? How will our plan change if trumps break 4-1 instead of 3-2? Fred Karpin's classic book The Drawing of Trumps and Its Postponement (now out of print) was one of the most valuable books on declarer play I read when I first learned bridge. Now this book brings this material to a new generation of players.

	Transfer Responds to One Club with Relays
	Lyle Poe

This treatment became legal in most sectional and regional tournaments in 2018 - read about and decide if you want to give it a try!

	Commonsense Bidding
	Bill Root
	The single best book on the market today about good old-fashioned Standard American bidding. Literally every common bidding situation (and a lot of uncommon ones!) that doesn't involve any conventions fancier than Stayman and Blackwood is in here. This book is my first recommendation to new bridge players after they finish their first course of lessons. A solid grounding in natural bidding principles is essential to know what conventions are worth learning and when to use them. Also ideal for the serious rubber bridge player who needs to be able to bid effectively with unfamiliar partners without time for a long discussion about partnership methods.

	How to Play a Bridge Hand
	Bill Root
	"Not for the beginner or the expert, but great for the 90% of you in between," as it says in the preface. Hundreds and hundreds of practice hands illustrating how to play suit combinations, how to establish and maintain trump control, deciding which of two suits to play on. By the end of the book you work your way up to throwins and squeezes, and a chapter on special cases where you play the hand different at matchpoints than at rubber bridge.

	Modern Bridge Conventions
	Bill Root and Richard Pavlicek
	More than "just" a description of how the 50 or so most popular bidding conventions work. It also goes into great detail about how the second and third rounds of bidding unfold after each convention is used; how different conventions interact with each other; and how to cope with the loss of the natural bid you had to give up to adopt the convention. Every convention in the book is rated as a "one-, two-," or "three-star convention" according to how complex it is, making it easier for new players to decide which conventions are worth their effort to learn. An appendix shows how to mark each convention on the ACBL convention card. There are several newer conventions books on the market today, but this one had stood the test of time. Exceptionally well-written and thorough, it is still my top pick in this category.
