- A curiousity... Burt Marks proves bridge is a game of skill
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_at_the_2018_Asian_Games
- False Card 2/2
- Garozzo would be proud!
- Ankur Rathi's bidding problem: J976 T4 AQ6 AK75
- I am afraid we will very likely be left defending 5HX. Similar concerns with Pass. Assuming partner will take out to 5♠ with a singleton heart is wishful thinking (unless you have really discussed this auction, in which case I agree X is the most flexible bid). It is ...
- ACBL Live Chrome Extension
- The comment by Craig sounds like a polite feature request which could potentially improve the experience for everyone using the tool. Speaking as a software engineer, I would welcome such comments...
- Director Ruling
- If 2♦ is drury, the 2♠ bid is actually a good bid, IMO.
- Bridge Players and the movie world
- Louis Sachar. The movie Holes has been pretty successful. Barry Crane was associated with the TV series Mission Impossible and the movies based on those are pretty successful.
- Advanced safety plays
- 5D, 1H and 3 clubs is 9 tricks for declarer. You don't want partner to cover!
- Advanced safety plays
- Yes! Hold onto the third spade and the small club to prevent declarer from figuring out the club situation. A similar hand (but simpler probably) I had blogged about earlier: http://ruffnsluff.blogspot.com/2016/01/keep-winners-throw-losers.html
- Watch 1983 TV Series “Master Bridge” on YouTube.
- My first thought 'Wow! This program is pretty great!' My second thought was 'This is actually too deep. This will never fly as a TV program, even for the average bridge player'. The presentation could definitely have been made better (BBO would have helped greatly if it existed).
- Eric Sieg's bidding problem: AQ6 J98xxx 8 A9x
- This is far too pessimistic. Yes your trumps are bad but they will very likely be compensated by your partner's holding (and you have six of them). You also have ♣A, ♠AQ and a singleton diamond.
