In all contracts, but especially in Notrump, developing a long suit into winners is a highly effective way to make our contract.  We will look at these options and compare them to establishing tricks the old fashioned way (with our High Cards) and see how we can combine these two skills to improve our play.

Making a Plan is the most important part of Declarer play.  This month we turn our focus to Declarer play and specifically Notrump Contracts.  We'll begin by examining what is involved with making this plan and focus on our most fundamental of ideas - Counting Winners!
