What is Bridge?

Good question, that's hard to answer, but here goes...
Bridge is a card game, the aim of which is to make as many tricks as possible, using both your own cards, and that of your partner. Between you, your team will hold half the cards in the deck. Your opposition will hold the other half. The game borrows on techniques learnt from chess and poker. The skilful player will not only play with thought and care, but will also bluff where necessary in order to sow seeds of doubt in their opponents’ minds. The skill of the opponents is in overcoming this smoke-screen. Easy to learn, but hard to master, it has an endearing appeal which has lasted throughout the centuries. A game played by many millions of people throughout the world, including ex-US presidents, film stars, and people like you and us.
