Joseph Caldwell Bridge Bidding System. A simplified contract bridge bidding system. (4 October 2012)
The attached sheet presents a simplified natural bridge bidding system. It is intended to help new players quickly learn a basic bidding system that will enable them to proceed to play bridge without investing a substantial amount of effort in learning a complicated bidding system involving many artificial bids and requiring the memorization of many bidding rules based on high-card points and suit lengths. This system may (optionally) include several artificial (conventional) bids (Blackwood, transfers, and nonpenalty doubles). It is similar to the Standard American and Acol systems, but substantially simplified.
