Re: [bridge-133] BRIDGE

Are you looking for classes or just social play with those at your level, I didn't think the meetup was meant as an avenue to teach the game, but as a well to play social bridge with those at your level. --- On Tue, 5/6/08, A.

I'm an intermediate player that hasn't played for a while so I'm effectively a beginner but I don't think beginners are going to learn much from each other. Is anyone interested in a group that welcomes everyone? I'd love to play in Brooklyn also!

Your attitude towards beginners is disgusting.  As a teacher of this game, I can tell you it is the QUICKEST way to make sure people are turned OFF to bridge. If you don't want to play with beginners, then have a separate beginners table.  But to say you won't welcome them at all?  You were a beginner once.  What if no one had wanted to play with you? ----- Original Message ----- From: marilyn To: [address removed] Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2008 1:28 PM Subject: [bridge-133] BRIDGE HI BRIDGE PLAYERS, I THINK WE'VE FOUND AN ACCEPTABLE VENUE FOR PLAYING BRIDGE. IT IS A STARBUCKS ON 30TH STREET AND PARK AVENUE SOUTH. I THINK WE SHOULD LIMIT THE FIRST MEETUP TO THREE TABLES (12 PEOPLE BUT IF MORE THEY CAN SIT IN). I KNOW THE PREFERENCE IS FOR WEDNESDAY BUT I CAN ONLY DO IT ON MONDAY, MAY 12. I ALSO AM MAKING A RULE THAT ONLY EXPERIENCED PLAYERS ARE INVITED. BRIDGE IS A CHALLENGING GAME AND SHOULD BE PLAYED ON A LEVEL (EQUAL) PLAYING FIELD. THEREFORE, SORRY, NO BEGINNERS PLEASE. 7PM MONDAY MAY12 STARBUCKS - CLOSED AT 12 PEOPLE BUT IF THERE IS ROOM THEN MAYBE YOU CAN PLAY. I WILL BRING THE CARDS. $2.00 APIECE PLEASE.
