At article learn bridge base of part 2 this, will study about some Bridge order, especially in calculation of score. But previously let us meet first by what referred with Distributional Card Point. So also with card of King, this neither card nor will can always make trick. Taking example you play at 3♦ and have heart singleton, moment of A♥ played you follow because owning sheet of heart. But when opponent play King Heart at next opportunity, you can win trick by playing card of trump.
From example above, can be concluded that short suit like doubleton, singleton, or void can lessen possibility of card honor opponent to make trick. Therefore, a player of good bridge has to calculate distribution card point besides counting owned HCP. Hereinafter distribution card point referred DCP, DCP calculated after there compatible suit (fit in suit).
Formula of DCP :
DCP = Total Trump – Short Suit
North South?
1♠ ♠ A1098
♥ 8
♦ K987
♣ J1032
Try to pay attention hold of card above, in this hold you have support opener suit and have 8 HCP. Usually you'd bi 2♠ meaning you support partner suit and promise 6-9 HCP. But besides owning 8 HCP, you also have DCP that is 4 - 1 = 3. Number 4 is the amount of support card of trump number and one is short suit. Thereby if 8 HCP added with DCP (8+3=11) hence totalizing point which you have 11 point. Become with hold of card as in to the, you ought to bid 3♠ to indicate that you hold 10-12 point. This formula can only be used if you support partner suit (fit), become if there is no suit agreed as trump hence formula not applicable, and not applicable if first you times offer suit which then agreed as trump.
