Santa Fe Precision

Book excerpt: This book on Precision is quite different. It is a very simplified version, based on the system played by Rodwell and Meckstroth so successfully, but aimed at club players. Dennis Dawson learned Meckwell Lite fifteen years ago when playing on teams with Rodwell and Meckstroth. He then used it while representing the US in the Senior World Team Championship, in which he won a bronze medal. Dawson's students in Santa Fe wanted to learn the system, so he made some changes to make it easier for them to remember. That version is the basis of this book, which includes many examples from thirteen years of teaching the system. "Precision is more effective and more fun than 2/1! You bid more and pass less, and bidding is more fun." Fred Gitelman, founder of BBO
