Gary Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Welcome to the forum rugby balls - a strange name for a Bridge player!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugbyballs Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Thought I'd better keep the rugby affiliation a bit anonymous. Best not to admit to being a Leyther on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Welcome to the forum rugbyballs. I just looked at your link and I think I need a lie down in a dark room now. Crikey Bridge sounds really complicated...... no wonder people need lessons to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugbyballs Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Maybe the link is a bad idea It isn't an easy game (someone on Leigh Life asked if it was harder than snap!_). It is really challenging but can be played at different levels. We have an excellent teacher who will guide you painlessly through the early stages. Does need commitment though. Think learning chess. It would be difficult to describe at any level beyond how the pieces move. Bridge is similar -not too difficult to teach the basics and leads to lots of lovely social connections when you can play the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugbyballs Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Maybe this makes it more attractive to learn the game: http://home.comcast.net/~kwbridge/why.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Oops sorry, the first link wasn't a bad idea... I'm just a bit thick when it comes to playing games (I can play snap though, maybe I should live in Leigh) Perhaps I should sign up from what your second link says. Infact quite a few others on here could benefit from it too...... running for cover now It sounds quite good actually especially as the games seem short. I always though a game of Bridge lasted hours. What day will it be on each week and at what time ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Looks rather complicated to me, I think i'd rather build a bridge than play one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugbyballs Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Each hand lasts about 6 or 7 minutes. In a club you play in a competition lasting around 3 hours. The lessons are on Tues evenings at 7.30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
