In this book Marty goes a little further in discussing his "rule of twenty". The reader will learn to reevaluate honor cards to get a more accurate point count. Aces are generally worth more than 4, jacks are generally worth less than 1. Honors in your own suits are worth more if you play the hand. Anyone who enjoyed Points Schmoints will find this a useful addition to their bridge library.
