9. Could your club and/or Federation do more to improve your enjoyment of bridge?

10. Do you have a theory on why some of the most hideous of hogs at the bridge table are often the nicest people one could meet away from the table?

One final question exclusively for members of Aces Academy:

Would you like us arrange monthly or ladder competitions for any of the following games? 

Rummikub, cribbage, backgammon, dominoes

Games that can be enjoyed by any and every generation

Did you know that totally BLIND people play bridge tournaments - and WIN

I would not be asking that question if I hadn`t been beaten by a blind pair using braille cards

That extraordinary feat - a blind pair finishing ahead of over 100 experienced and full-sighted pairs - was achieved at a festival in Roquebrune-sur-Argens (France)

Absolutely incredible!

A truly humbling and heartening experience for me and all the other participants

Yes, the pleasures of bridge are there for ALL to enjoy
