Play Virtual Bridge from the comfort of your home or office

Join the COS Men's Club online Bridge group, which meets every Tuesday at 7 p.m. All are welcome - no age limit, no experience needed and no other forms of discrimination, only a desire to have a fun time learning and playing Bridge. All that is required is Internet access and a laptop/computer to access the game, which is played while on a Zoom call, so participants can kibbitz (explain, question or teach) while playing. The Zoom can be on a cell phone or just leave the zoom app open in background on the same device you play on. The game is played using BridgeBase.com and you just need to create a Bridge Base user ID. There is no cost to play or to obtain a user ID or to play. Go to https://www.bridgebase.com and register for your free BBO (bridge base online) ID and password. Once you create an account, send Jim Tinkoff (jtinkoff@cfl.rr.com) or Andy Rosen (andy@pineloch.com) an email with your Bridge Base ID, your email address, telephone number and if you already know how to play. If you need any assistance establishing a BridgeBase account email Jim Tinkoff (jtinkoff@cfl.rr.com) and he will help you get started.

Bridge requires four people to play and no real experience is required - teachers are available. People are partnered at tables of four and then moved into a separate Zoom room to keep the ambient noise down while playing.
