Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- AARP Could Be Used to Promote Bridge
- The ACBL did have a working arranging with AARP a few years ago, but that seems to have fallen by the wayside. Not sure why.
- ACBL Elections Forum
- So far, no candidate has said whether he/she would be in favor of the proposed bylaws change to reduce the BoD to 9 members chosen for their business acumen, and have the BoG restructured to 50 members comprising a 'Senate' which would construct committees to address all matters related ...
- Governance Alternatives - Political Realities
- I am quite confident that many if not most of the BoD read Bridge Winners, even if they seldom post on BW. They do not have access to this BoG forum however. I am not sure if that is good or bad. It would be much better if this forum ...

- What kind of squeeze is this?
- The 2nd diagram on page 2 has the clubs wrong between East and West. Made it difficult to follow until I saw the 3rd diagram.
- How do you act and alert after partner's missbid?
- Henrik, even if you are not required to explain your agreements over a natural 1♦, is there any reason that you should not do so here?
- How do you act and alert after partner's missbid?
- A few years ago I had a similar post on BW. The opps, whom we had never seen before, opened 1♦, which they promptly alerted. Partner did not ask and bid 2♦. They asked the meaning of 2♦ and I had to asked what 1♦ was ...
- How do you act and alert after partner's missbid?
- You are obligated to give the opps your agreements, plural, not just one agreement. The revelant information they are entitled to includes other agreements that might apply to similar auctions. So I would provide both agreements of 2♦ and let the opps decide for themselves what your partner's ...
