Does anyone play Bridge?

It sounds a bit stuffy and old-fashioned nowadays but my father was a very good player. Never picked up the habit myself but I wondered if there are any fans on these boards.

What do you do? Do you go to Bridge evenings at peoples' houses or perhaps belong to a club? Perhaps it's the wrong game and you're more of a poker fan instead?

I tried to learn, just did not understand it. I have a short attention span.

Same here !

Prefer 'Spite and malice' or 'Racing Demon' or even good old 'Gin Rummy'.

Not a card game, but Monopoly is fun with a group.

I understand the Royal Family does not allow the game to be played as too many fights broke out amongst the family members.....goes to show they really are just like us

I don't play bridge, but would love to learn. I play Euker and poker. I used to love playing Yahtzee.

My brother tried to teach me how to play poker - but I never got the hang of it!
