Ladies and Gentlemen,

Bridge is not just another Card game !

No doubt that all and sundry have agreed that Bridge is the ultimate mind game.

The jury is out with a clear verdict that this is the King of all card games, alright.

Nevertheless, Bridge keeps close alliance with other card games.

Surprised? But it is true. When you play Bridge, you get the thrills of other card games too as a bonus overtrick πŸ™‚

How? Read on...

When you play bridge you are advised to

  • Keep a Poker face
  • Gamble with all you can bet like Rummy
  • Play with aplomb like in Flush (Teen Patti)
  • You need to have Patience in bridge when things are not going your way!

Further, hands are also described in terms of other games

  • When you are dealt AKQJ10 in a suit, you get the Royal Flush of poker.
  • When you are dealt 3 Aces it is as good as a winning combination of flush!
  • If you are dealt 34 hcps you can celebrate a Full House, no doubt.

When you play bridge - it is a multi of different card games! Continue playing bridge and enjoy other card games too as a combo offer πŸ™‚

Happy bridging,

VNR
