Distribution and Probabilities

Determining the Distribution

 

Counting the played cards in groups of four is a bad habit even if the count of left over cards is determined correctly. If counting the total cards in dummy and hand as well as the ones being played in a suit seems sufficient, there will be no difference for bridge from an ordinary game since necessary analysis can’t be made.

 

Bridge player must determine the count towards finding the outside distribution. One way of this is assuming equal outside distribution when playing a suit and determine how many each has by looking at the cards played. This way, the distribution of the fourth suit can be determined after the counts in three suits are completed. A good player with the habit of using this application, will determine the distributions without any hardship and spending special effort at the end of each play.
