What reading level is Bridge Abridged: Or, Practical Bridge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hand 8. — B declares **no trumps," and wins three by cards and holds three aces, C holding the fourth. B scores 36 below and 30 above, and C scores 10 above.
B has now won two games and the rubber, for which he adds 100 to his score. The result of the rubber is that B wins 142 from A and 166 from C, amounting to +308.
A loses 142 to B, and wins 24 from C, making him - 1 18.
C loses 166 to A and 24 to B, making - 190.
This scoring may seem rather complicated ; but it is not really so, and it wil...l be found to work quite easily and smoothly. The points won and lost slightly exceed those at ordinary Bridge, but this is more than counterbalanced by the increased time which a rubber takes to play.
OR, PRACTICAL BRIDGE. 93 Doubling will be a very rare occurrence at this game, as you cannot help your own score on towards 30 by doubling; and, unless you have a certainty of the odd trick in your own hand, you may come across a phenomenal division of the cards, which will enable the dealer to re-double and to win the game.
