Our goal is to enjoy and promote the game of duplicate bridge.  Bridge combines socializing with competition, luck with skill, and individual flair with partnership cooperation. It is beyond doubt the best game in the world.
Come play and learn bridge with us.

That's right...every first Wednesday of the month
there will be a light supper provided
at 6:00 and bridge play will begin at 6:30.

Bridge cost is normally $5 for members and $8 for non-members.
But on First Wednesday Supper evening the price will increase by $2.
Supper and bridge for $7/$10 bucks...can't beat that price!

Reserve your spot for Wednesday, June 6th by clicking on the link below!

NOSH! NOSH! FIRST WEDNESDAY SUPPER!

The first Wednesday Supper is not an option, if you play, you pay.
Also, if you reserve a spot and cancel after Sunday before
the game or are a no show,
you will owe the $2.00.

Why are the Master Points different from my records/or what is reported?
The Master Points might be different if there were changes to overall score results and the game was not re-uploaded into the data base.

How do I change my email or phone number?
Members are responsible for updating their own member information on the member page. You must sign in to do any changes. For email changes, it is not enough to change it on the web site page. Our email data base that generates emails to you and the web site are not integrated; you must notify the studio email too at dentonbridgestudio@gmail.com.

Where can I find the address and directions to the studio?
The address is located in the menu on the left side of the web page. Select “information”, a drop down menu bar will appear and you can find the address and a map under “how to find us” & a address and list of games in “where & when”.

Did you know that any member can post a news message or look for a partner?
The old way is still available by accessing the "Members Only" page. The first screen to appear displays the current messages. Make sure you select "save" after you type your message. 
But a new update has been implemented which is easier to use and check. Select "Message Board/Partnership Request" from the "Menu Bar". Type in your message and select "Post Message". Your BOD does have the right to delete any message that is one week past date or inappropriate.

How do I access the results?
You can access the results in one of three ways:

• Click the link "Latest Results" at the top right of the screen to see the last game held at the studio
• Click on "Results" in the Menu Screen on the left side of the screen and select the date you want to view
• Scroll down to the lower right and click on one of the last three games that were played.
  
  What will you see when you get to a results page? 
  You will see the deal information with makeable contracts, what other teams bid, the lead card and the scores. This is a fantastic tool for you to improve your game.
  
  Title Bars and Links
  A lot of the information on the web site is found by clicking on the title bars and links. Title Bars usually do not have any information under them. Once the user clicks on the title bar, a new window will open displaying the information that is needed. The links are usually a single word that stands alone at the end of the article. When you roll over the word with your mouse, the link changes to an underlined word that usually changes color. Click on that underlined word (link) and you will be redirected to the information that you were seeking.
