Sir I have altogether a different question. Where I stay, has observed in most of the bridge pairs tournaments, play is conducted as per Mitchell movement format. But prizes are awarded in combination of both NS and EW results and after some rounds, arrow switch takes place. My point is whether it gives justice to all participants or a degree of discrimination at some point. So if separate prizes are given NS and EW, the treatment seems to equal but in case of combined prizes that doesn't happen and perhaps becomes a case of disparity. What is the correct forum where I can approach and get my desired answer. Thnx and regards

Forgot this one ... "Off" (like "one off") = "down" (like "down 2")

Chris Hasney, I loved this video so much, I had to hit the like button!

Yesterday went for pairs tournament with 8 tables and mitchell movement. Last 4 deals were played on arrow switch format. Normally in such format number of prizes are divided into two groups i e 2 two 2 top NS pairs and 2 top EW pairs. But yesterday organizers made the ranking by combining both EW and NS players. My question is whether the procedure followed yesterday was correct or not. Regards.

Kindly make a tutorial on imp pairs scoring with 10 pairs 5 table illustration

Sounds like it was about to turn into *contact* bridge.

The movie which inspired the Star Trek episode Balance of Terror.

Lol Captain Crane ( David Hedison /Sea view ) the early years ! I had not seen this film in a long time and forgot he was in it.

Excellent movie. Most times the Captain is made to play the fool and enlisted men and junior officers run the ship.

don't they have a war to fight on?

I saw this film while on active duty in the Army, in 1964 & barely remember the plot! Since I had actually met James Garner, in 1963, while he was shooting the film "The Wheeler Dealers, at Idlewild Airport, NYC, I looked forward to seeing this one! This film was obviously, mostly shot on a 'sound stage', in black & white & more like a t.v. show, than a major motion picture! The dialogue & actors were good, but the movie was lacking!

I had to look at this clip since i didn't recognize the film, but I've seen it many times. Great stuff with Robert Mitchum and Curt Jergens. When the Navy was still really the Navy. I guess up till the early 1990s it stayed that way from my perspective.

Rank often depended on your billet. The Captain of the Ship was a Lt. Commander, was were most Commanding Officers of Destroyers and other smaller ship. Since he was just an Lt. Commander his XO could not be of a higher rank so Mr. Ware is a Double Bar Lt. Since Mr. Ware commands the other men and officers, none of then can hold a higher rank than him, hence all the Silver bar and butter officers. Now the doctor is an exception since he is medical staff and not command staff, he can actually have a higher rank than the Captain but cannot give orders outside his medical duties.

I love how this movie shows that older German Officers were not the Brainwashed Hitler youth like the younger office. The Captain of the U-boat was just man doing his job.

In Monuments Men, George Clooney was a 40 year old 1st Lt.

What movie is this?

A favorite movie of mine and a great scene. The military commanders arguing about the PR implications of the upcoming D-day invasion and Julie Andrews notes: "This going to be a blood bath.", in reference to the Bridge hand they are playing. Brilliant writing.

I realize that script writers don't know anything about bridge. But they hire navel people to authenticate the navel scenes. Couldn't they have hired a bridge player to make sure the game had at least one player who hadn't learned the game seven seconds ago? I feel like Charley Brown listening to Lucy and going Ow Ow Ow

I understood ship lights out came at 2130. My boo boo..

I sure miss rubber bridge. Even in the old days of duplicate one could still enjoy some light conversation without being shushed by the noise police.

Interesting that gambling like this would be against regulations in the Royal Navy and yet the policy on alcohol consumption is far more liberal in the RN compared with the USN

The J.G. said he was retired and living in Northern Nevada. People smoked back then and that aged people. BTW, I saw the exact same thing in 2006 when the US Army started getting retirees back into the Army for support of Iraq operations. I saw 55 year old warrant officers activated. They had no damn business on active duty. They were cycled through tactical training- honestly - well trained and physically fit early twenties women moved a hell of a lot better.

Question. In the July 2022 Ruling the Game Column in the ACBL Bulletin, Matt Koltnow wrote "I try to make sure it's clear that some bids allow the auction to continue without penalty, and all other calls, including pass, would bar their partner (you) for the REMAINDER of the auction." emphasis mine. This is in direct conflict with what you are saying in this video. Can you please clarify what is the correct interpretation of the laws?

What if defender leads out of turn and declarer chooses to require that suit be lead by the proper defender and that defender cannot (is void in the suit)? Announcing this provides both his partner and declarer with the same information, but might benefit one pair more than the other.
