PhilG007 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 If this story is true, then I can well understand, based on the insight into the game that your posts display, why your formidable opponents welcome you to the high stakes game....after all, they only partner you 1/3rd of the time. I really wish you would re-read helene's and zel's posts addressed to you. One of the characteristics of a poor player is that he has no idea how good players think. There are some extremely good players here....players with multiple national titles and, in the case of at least two, world titles. You don't impress anyone here....don't you at least think that in a forum with some really good players, at least one or two of them might agree with you if there were merit in your posts? I suggest a little humility on your part might make your participation here more enjoyable, for you and for the rest of us. I always make it a point never to argue with fools...onlookers wouldn't notice the difference(!)Even the best have their critics(!) I,personally, don't give a damn whether what I post hereis agreeable or not. As I already said elsewhere on this site ,this is an open forum. You can concur or dispute as you wish,thatis your choice. As for your statement about 'really good players' they may well be good...in their own estimation(!)And as for humility......show me a humble bridge player and I'll show you a liar. :P "Any fool can win tricks with Aces and Kings.

Zelandakh Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 As for your statement about 'really good players' they may well be good...in their own estimation(!)Just so you know who you are arguing with: Mike Hargreaves@WBF. I may not be an expert but Mike most certainly is. Phil is also a player with a great deal of experience of top level play. Their records speak for themselves. I would certainly not wish to play high-stakes bridge against either! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrax Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 You sort of ruined the hustle there, Zel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveharty Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 I've got to start reading the forums more often again...I almost missed this thread altogether. Priceless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
