Stephen Green, 52, is accused of stabbing his wife Carole to death in January, after fights about her card playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 it is always amazing that people can get so heated over a game. if her playing was that bad or good, then why did he continue to have her as a partner for bridge. wonder if there was a more underlying problem that was just triggered by it. still given the rules that govern playing and the various conventions for bidding and such i am not surprised people get "excited" over it. will stick to snap and even that can get nasty when playing with a six year old i can tell you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter T Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Good job my Mother didn't play Bridge. The old man would have bumped her off years ago. He used to play two nights a week well into his 80's. He stopped because he didn't want to let his partner down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Durnim Posted July 23, 2010 Report Share Posted July 23, 2010 How ironic, people usually die jumping off a bridge, not playing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
