News and articles about bridge
Greetings!
Summer is nearly over, but bridge knows no seasons. This month I have the usual news and articles, starting with my upcoming trip to Ireland for the first major U.S. versus Europe bridge battle.
The Warren Buffet Cup
  U.S. vs. Europe Buffet
This month in Ireland, the U.S. will battle Europe at the bridge table.

At the same time that Tiger Woods is playing against Europe with the top 12 U.S. golfers, my partner Dave Berkowitz and I will be amongst 12 U.S. bridge players facing Europe in Ireland. Across town from golf's Ryder Cup, we will conduct the first Ryder Cup of Bridge, called the "Buffet Cup."

Fortunately, we'll be doing the bridge playing and leaving the golf to Tiger (although we do plan to visit the golf event). Click here for more details.
