mr1303 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Please forgive my ignorance, but in bridge terms, what does it mean to call someone a fish? Maybe Mike Fish Bell might be able to enlighten me on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

campboy Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 I think this may have originated with Yardley's Education of a Poker Player. His Chinese aide is puzzled by Yardley's use of the term "sucker" and looks it up in a dictionary, which says that it's a type of fish.
