Why does my defense suck? It's much worse than my declarer play.

When you are declarer, you are in total control. 95% of defense is being on the same page as partner, signaling, giving count, freeing partner from squeezes/endplays etc.

Are you and partner on the same page, do you signal and give count consistently?



NO. declarers are subject to the variance of opening leads, and a much tougher time getting the layout right. I'm biased. I'm 100x better on defense than I am at declaring, its just about visualizing layouts and having feel for what your partner has.
