Regardless of what sadistic impulses we may harbor, winning bridge means helping partner avoid mistakes. -Frank Stewart
The difference between genius and stupidity at the bridge table is that genius has its limits.
A player who can't defend accurately should try to become declarer (or dummy). -Alfred Sheinwold
Two guys play duplicate in the afternoon, go to a restaurant for dinner and discuss all the hands writing all over the tablecloth and napkins. They go back and play in the evening and return to the same restaurant and start going over the hands again. Finally Jim says: "Bill, don't we know anything but bridge? Can't we discuss something else, anything else, movies, politics sports, sex? "Sex, says Bill, I had sex diamonds to the king-queen.."
Update 12-03-21
Monday 15 March 2021 we start playing again in hotel Los Arrayanes.
show up at 3pm, start playing 3:15pm.
1 ) Be in time that is to say 10 minutes before we start.
The starting time is 15:15 but be present at 15:05 at the latest.
That gives us time to start up the system and play at 15:15.
Thank you for your understanding.
2 ) At the table:
check if you sit at the right table
check if you sit in the right direction
check if you have the right boards
check if the board you play coincides with the board in the tablet.
Thank you
