Title: not good
Product review: A better title would be, "Win at Spades, Beginner play and Strategy: Techniques and Tips for the Beginner," because its unhelpful past that point. I found this book to be extremely disapointing. I expected it to have many conventions, strategies, and advanced logical thinking techniques to help one at the table. However, I found this book to only contain 25 deals, and everyone of them contained atleast one mistake. The most irritating part is that Mr. Andrews goes to a special point to mention every single card someone plays, wastes space talking about the wrong things, and he also writes in the passive voice. Most of his card logic is also ill concieved for the game of spades (perhaps more applicable to bridge only). The only advanced technique he mentions is finessing, but he offers no guidelines or helpful lines of thinking when on considers a finesse. In fact, most of the finesses taken in his 25 deals are practice finesses.
