I'm just telling you that this game takes time to really be learned. You need study and understanding of concepts, because the bridge game is not based on luck. It's the only card game where decisions, thinking, math and discipline matter more than anything else. If you need guidance, I can teach you a few things. Try it - you will not regret it.infonazar said:
Bridge is, without question, the most complex card game. The strategy, communication, logic, and depth of decision‑making put it in a category of its own. Poker is great and has its own subtleties, but bridge remains by far the card game with the highest technical and intellectual complexity.anasslaaleg said:
Beautiful story, and very relatable for many who first discovered card games through family. Whist and trumps are great introductions, but bridge is a whole different level — that’s where real strategy begins. It’s a pity you didn’t have people to play with after school, because bridge becomes truly fascinating only when you have consistent partners. Omar Sharif was indeed an amazing ambassador for the game. If you ever get the chance to return to bridge, it’s worth it — it’s one of the most complex and elegant card games ever created.I’ve studied many deals played by Omar Sharif. His style, logic, and the way he built every sequence were remarkable. He was a true master of bridge and a great example for anyone who wants to understand the depth of the game.bazza155 said:
Friend, in my youth I played bridge for several years. It is because I played bridge that I can confidently say that comparing bridge and Preferans is not correct. It is like comparing the game of tic-tac-toe with the game of chess.Brigistul said:
I understand your point, but what you played in your youth was only a simplified, introductory version. Real bridge — the professional level — is a completely different world, closer to chess in depth, logic, and strategy. It can’t be compared to Preferans, nor to amateur forms of bridge. When you study deals played by top players, the difference becomes obvious.I’ve played bridge for about 20 years — first at home with friends, then in bridge clubs and tournaments. That’s where you truly see the real complexity of the game and the level at which it’s meant to be played.infonazar said:
