- Buchwald on Bridge
- When Buchwald was in poor health he was admitted to a hospice but survived much longer than was expected and wrote a series of funny and moving columns. There are a couple of other humorists (Dave Barry and Jay Leno) who have either written or spoken very movingly about their ...
- Common Game Tuesday 12 February Deal 14
- Obviously the diamond lead is critical in 5♥ and playing from South preserves your tenace. But after a top diamond lead when South is declarer, is it 'obvious' what to do next? You be the judge.
- Jacoby Transfer super-acceptances
- I think our own personal experiences may color our view of who gets more from the transfer breaks. Over the last 35+ years I've been playing methods espoused by Steve Lodge where opener can show a specified strong doubleton; or he can show an unspecified weak doubleton. [SENTENCE EDITED ...
- Play 6H on board #1 from 1/28/19 common game
- My partner was in this slam and received a spade lead. She elected to test hearts with king and ace then could have combined chances with the top spades and a ruff to fall back on the club finesse. I thought that might have been the best combination shot but ...

- Sleeping on the couch, again
- I think I had all four of Richard's answers and did not recommend DC for the couch.
- What is the meaning of demonstrably?
- I had understood that 'could' demonstrably and 'is demonstrably' are not synonymous.
- What is the meaning of demonstrably?
- does 'lick vape' anagram to Pavlicek? With vicarlike Dr Chap anagramming to Richard Pavlicek?
- In The Well- Michael Xu
- I played against Julian Laderman, who lived/s in the same building as Gene and told me that he invented this story and told it to Gene, who adopted it as his own. Julian was playing with...Gene's widow. I guess I got this story in just in time ...
- In The Well- Michael Xu
- The late Gene Prosnitz was a fine New York player. I cant find a picture of him on-line but once seen never forgotten. At some point I remember him saying something to the effect that he was once the best player in the Bronx but now wasn't even the ...
