Steak or PB&J
Actually the whole hand plays like a par problem (perhaps all hands do or should). All that's really worth thinking about on this one are highly obscure distributions. In fact I was impressed by how long my partner took as declarer at tricks two and three. I'm sure ...
Bridge with Dad, part 1
Great article Dana...is this from the tournament where you told me it felt like you'd been playing there for a month?
Kamil wins 2012 Lazard Sportsman of the Year Award
Thanks once again everyone for all the nice comments...it's really an honor to win this.
In Defense of Chemistry
Hi Brad, Thanks for writing this...it's an important topic. I agree with you wholeheartedly. To me the main point is that it's an [b][i]unconcious[/i][/b] effect on a player when there's some kind of negativity on the team. As you suggest, we're ...
Kamil wins 2012 Lazard Sportsman of the Year Award
Thanks once again for all of the nice thoughts. I'm really overwhelmed by the honor. As for Boye's double Roland, I think it was pure genius. As far as I can tell, 7H is only down 3 on best play. Why settle for a paltry 300 when 1700 ...
Kamil wins 2012 Lazard Sportsman of the Year Award

USA 2 Ducks Their Way to Victory
Henry, I suspect you're right. We can likely tie in the voice commentary to what the written commentators are saying. However, on my first time around I was pretty much divorced from the writing on the screen. I probably saw about a quarter of the comments and had almost ...
USA 2 Ducks Their Way to Victory
Congratulations to USA 2 - a very well played match by you, very few errors and some excellent bidding judgment. Let's hope for a rematch in the BB semi-finals. Henry, I found it interesting to be an oral commentator for the first time. It takes a bit of time to ...
Levin-Weinstein Joining Nickell in 2012
Best of luck to Steve and Bobby. A great addition to the Nickell squad. They will be sorely missed in some quarters. :)
