So, we settle for what we can get. If you defended a hand with a non-descript nine HCPs, what are the odds your very next hand would have the exact same (non-descript) five-card heart holding? And would you notice the exact same five-card suit once you sorted your hand? |

These players are primarily from the Twin Cities metro area (as one would expect), with 758 players in the 553xx, 554xx, and 551xx zip codes. The remaining outstate Minnesota players total 475. But however the ACBL membership in Minnesota does get broken down, keep in mind that overall you and your fellow ACBL members compose less than 1/40th of 1% of all Minnesotans. WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. There are plenty of bridge players and games across the state that aren't ACBL sanctioned, and both outstate and metro efforts are being made to increase our bridge playing population. There are some successes being recorded - but if you love this game of bridge (and you know you do) - get involved at your local club to help grow our game! (Another way to look at this is for every active ACBL member in Minnesota, there are 4,629 people that are NOT - so the pool of potential players is huge.) |
Despite a little poetic license with the date, fundraising for such a great cause is worthy ANY day of the year, and kudos to the St Cloud club for getting started on the donations now. If you're thinking of playing Monday and need a partner, click here. (And if sunset after Monday's bridge game is 31 minutes later than you were thinking, so much the better.) |
