barmar Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I think I might be able to take Rodwell in bridge boxing, but Meckstroth is pretty big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_U_Card Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Or how about stand-up bridge? There seem to be a lot of players that are pretty comical.... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenrexford Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I would imagine that a physical translation of what is occurring at the table might be an interesting way to play the game. Some ideas: If the opponents are in trouble, and you are prepared to double, or "hit it," physically punch the opponent as your double. Of course, if he thinks he can make it, he can punch you back to redouble. As a corollary, punching your partner after this is an S.O.S. redouble. If you are being strip-squeezed, you must disrobe as you make each of your costly pitches. An inverted minor raise is probably not allowed. Upside-down signals are allowed, if you can pull it off. A scissors coup is allowed, but only in midnight games. Stuff like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASkolnick Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Actually, I always thought of Full Contact Bridge. 4 players start equidistant from a deck of 52 cards. You each need to claim 13 cards and sit back in your seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoi5 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Bridge wrestling is probably better as there a couples in bridge :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackshoe Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Given the average age of bridge players I suspect "Contact Bridge" would closely resemble a Monty Python sketch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtfanclub Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Can you imagine the signalling you could do, though? "If I start by throwing a jab, that means I want you to lead clubs". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossoneri Posted July 10, 2008 Report Share Posted July 10, 2008 "If I slap my RHO's chin, I want hearts" Contact Bridge sounds fun though....although you might need to make tear-proof cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigpenz Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 how about Naked Bridge Flighted according to weight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_U_Card Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 According to age might be somewhat less daunting. }shudder{ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
