- Honolulu BRP 7NT Lead Discussion
- When one of the World's best matchpoint players, Bobby Levin, having already limited his hand launches into a blackwood auction opposite a mostly unlimited partner bids a grand but does not go looking for 7NT (via 5NT) that is very telling. When Joey bids 7NT suggesting tricks he hasn ...
- Your Opinion on This Director Call and Possible Re-call?

- Calling the director at a local club
- Peg, some have said that calling the director is what you do best.
- Calling the director at a local club
- I believe the rules state that you call the director.
- Touchy Feely
- Peg, Have faith – technology will come along to make the game better. What we don’t want is to be sitting at the table wondering why we aren’t sitting back on our bed with our favorite bird on our shoulder playing bridge. Someone will come along with at the ...
