In contests between strong teams, the majority of swings occur when different contracts are reached at the two tables. Brilliant card play and card play errors do contribute swings, but most gains and losses arise in the bidding. At the time of writing, the winning teams at each of the three most recent Bermuda Bowls included at least one pair playing Polish Club. They are full time professional players so they could probably deploy any bidding system with some success, but it is notable that with a free choice, they?ve chosen Polish Club. Polish Club is played by a number of the world's best players, winning many world championships yet it has little following outside its native country--something this book is intended to change. Polish Club is the most popular system in Poland where it is known as Wspolny Jezyk, which translates to "Common Language". That means it is not a super complex bidding approach only suited to world champions, though the fact they use it is surely testimony to its effectiveness. Read this book and you'll soon begin to appreciate it's a great system!
