Do you wonder why others defeat contracts you and your partner do
not? The answer is most likely that you aren’t using signals correctly on
defense. While there are three basic kinds of signals, you need to understand when one uses an attitude vs. a suit preference vs. a count signal.
How are they applied when following suit and how when making a discard. You do not need a partner to attend, but thin of the benefit of having you and your partner understand each other’s signal. As a declarer,
you will understand what the defenders are telling each other.
