Excerpt from Hopson on Auction
There are very few first-class players of Auction Bridge. There is a large number of good second-class players, but the vast majority grade from poor to very poor. Beginners generally play a thoughtful game, but they are apt to do their thinking after the hand has been played.
The average player, with commendable enthusiasm, buys a set of rules but lays them aside to be studied at some future time. The result is that he learns the rules of Auction Bridge by violating them at considerable expense to himself and his unfortunate partner.
