Latest favorite quote: "If two people always agree, one of them is unnecessary." - Carol Frank
My general feeling about bridge:
"-But I don't want to go among mad people!
-Oh, you can't help that, we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.
-How do you know I'm mad?
-You must be, or you wouldn't have come here."
I am Israeli, currently live in Foster City. Love dogs and puzzles, do science for a living.

- Move the Date of the Fall NABC!
- "The majority of bridge players work but some don’t.I don’t think we are too far off if we estimate that 1/3 of bridgeplayers work" Based on age distribution of ACBL membership I would question the first sentence, that seems to be directly contradicted by the second ...
- Move the Date of the Fall NABC!
- To add to Max's point - Thanksgiving is a national holiday. It is always a vacation. Labor Day, Veteran's day....etc extended weekends are up to your workplace if they give you a day off. So Thanksgiving is the holiday you can be sure everyone will have off.... :)Yu
- Comparable call
- I disagree. The problem with pass out of turn is that while there are many auctions that would limit the passed hand eventually, but having to do so *on the first round of bidding* results in pretty bad misrepresentation of responder hand - they basically have to conceal any new suit ...
- If not me . . .
- Jim, In general I have little sympathy for the approach of "if you can't make it better you should not complaint". I complained constantly about the lack of public transport in LA, and no I can't organise a better option. Nevertheless I expect better - maybe because I came ...
- Comparable call
- I do want to thank everyone here for enlightening me (and hopefully others), but I want to especially thank Jenny Carmichael who approached me at the nationals to discuss this in person. Personally, after the experience I believe that the easiest and equitable enough solution would be just to let ...
- SF NABC Trip Report
- Did Claude imitate Paul Trent? Because I am well familiar with the story from both him and George. :)Yu
- SF NABC Trip Report
- Someone asked why I beat Jim up.....I suggested to review our results from the first weekend. :)Yu
- SF NABC Trip Report
- He had Ramen at a pretty nice, and for SF not too overpriced spot. Good ramen. :)Yu
- Comparable call
- John, but 1H-2♥ may also contain a subset of hands that would initially open 2♦ or 2♠ or 3♣. So does pass. If I make either of these calls, the opener will know that now they don't contain those preemptive hands..... :)Yu
- Which bid is most liable for the final contract?
- I think pass, nf 2♠ and 2♠ are all underbids of S hand. However, I understand the pass and somewhat sympathize with 2♣. I just do not see 2♠, and have zero sympathy to that. It is true that N did not show an opening hand ...
