What Is Bridge?
During a game, you get easily drawn in by the many roundscalled tricksand thoroughly invested in your teammate.
Each player is partnered with the person seated across from them.
That suit, called the trump, is called by one player at the beginning of the game.
Why Bridge Is A Great Game
Bridge is the perfect balance of fun and logic.
The rules start out simple, but progressively get a little more complicated.
Her weekly game groups instead consisted of rummy and mahjong, which she still plays.
There’s no rhyme or reason why bridge slowly started dying out.
Where Can You Still Play Bridge?
If you prefer more analog options, there are hundreds of books to teach you.
Its something Id like to keep going, along with other fun games that made up my childhood.
Bridge might not be as commonly known nowadays, but its never too late to bring it back.
