I love the complexity of bridge. Do you love the complexity of bridge? Discuss.

Seriously, talk strategy, post memorable hands, whatever. Bridge is the best card game.

Love, flag.

EDIT: Another thought: we should totally play some online bridge.

Yes, we need to find online bridge.

Anyway, when the bids are flying all over the place and I've got high-value cards, I just bid no-trump at whatever level. Kind of defensive, I think, but I usually don't get strength in any one suit.

Would you do that even if you had, say, a 6-3-2-2 split? I absolutely hate playing no-trump; I get in a trump-game rhythm and then find I can't take the hand back with a low trump. I lose spectacularly.

Online Bridge (open this in a new window. It gets messy with other crap in the way)
I registered as 'kisler' because the name I use here was taken.

If I had strength in the suits of 2, I might still bet no-trump to take quick tricks. It's good not to wager blind.

...are flag and I the only ones here who play bridge?

I've used that site before. If anyone else plays, we could get a game together sometime.
