Bridge - Anyone know how to play it?

Postby gzagee » Sun Jan 11, 2009 10:14 pm

I was chatting to an old bloke I know last Friday and he was advising me on getting into a Bridge Club. Said it's a great game. Went on a 10 minute lecture extolling the rules and the "finesse"???? :dontknow: Sounded like he was talking Chinese. But he said more and more young folk are getting into it.

Snap's quality as is 21. I do like a game of scabby queen and dominos.

An old man ran it at my school. I got bored of it because it confuzzled me.

You can also go for rummy game. I think its the best card game I have ever played. if you want I can make you learn how to play rummy and all rummy rules. If you need help you can ask me any time
