Welcome to the Bridge Center of Austin - where the best game in the world is played everyday. We offer a variety of friendly beginning, intermediate, and open games and a full array of classes. All games feature pre-duplicated boards, hand records, and tabletop scoring devices. Our address is 6700 Middle Fiskville Road, Suite 408, Austin, TX  78752.
The Center is closed until further notice due to Covid-19. Please see below and join our virtual BCAustin Club Games.

The week of Oct. 26 to Nov. 1 will be Club Appreciation Week. All virtual club games will pay double black points. For BCAustin games, there will be no extra charge - same 5 BB$ as usual (except for Saturday 0-350 and Sunday 0-150 which are 6 BB$ on account of the post-game Zoom session with Jack Lacy.)

MidTex Alliance BBO Virtual Club Schedule

The bridge clubs in Units 207 (Austin & environs) and 172 (San Antonio & environs) have formed a BBO alliance called the MidTex Alliance. This allows players from all of those clubs to play in BBO games sponsored by any of those clubs. Currently, there are 15 bridge clubs in the alliance (basically all clubs in those two units). The clubs in those units that are running BBO games are:

• BCAustin
• Fiesta
• HI Bridge
• Hill Country Bridge

Below is the schedule of these BBO games in which BCA players can participate. Remember that these games will not show up in the Virtual Clubs menu until two hours before game time. We welcome your feedback. Use the Suggestion Box above right.

Weekend Limited Players: Hand Analysis and Zoom Meeting

Everyone misses lots of things about bridge pre-Covid. For limited players, we are trying to replicate a couple of things via Zoom: social interaction and bridge classes/instruction.
Following our weekend Saturday 0-350 and Sunday 0-150 games, there are now Zoom meetings with Jack Lacy providing analysis and answering questions about the hands just played. 
We are charging $6 for these games. Interested players need to register in advance or email as soon as the game ends with any questions about bidding and/or play. The registrations/emails will be used to create the Zoom invite. You must play in the game to attend the Zoom meeting.

If you think this is something that might interest you, please email Sally Sassen, to be added to the Zoom invitation that is sent following each game.
