With Covid cases again on the rise, it will be interesting to see how many people turn out for F2F bridge at the clubs which are re-opening. Hopefully, it will be lots, as online bridge, as convenient as it is, is just not the same. Good luck to all! […]

It's hard to escape this Netflix show right now -- everyone seems to be talking about it. Apparently it's making chess sexy again. And I wondered whether it was possible that bridge could get similar treatment... So I started to watch it. Unfortunately, I know something about chess. I used to be (a couple of lifetimes ago) a pretty good player, […]

With face to face bridge on hiatus for as far out as we can see, I have set up a number of BBO games online.

With bridge clubs now being closed due to the corona virus, many (I hope most) of our bridge community are self-quarantining at home...something that is probably more difficult for bridge players than for the general population, as the bridge players are used to the activity (sometimes daily) and the socializing that takes place when they play at […]

The first half is about the struggles Martin faced as a child first in the ghetto and then after avoiding selection for the gas chambers, as a prisoner in Auschwitz, on the long march to Buchenwald, and then as a displaced person.Having read this section I realized how much Martin's personality, perseverance […]
