July/August Newsletter THE FRIENDSHIP CLUB July/August Newsletter Friendship Bridge Club wishes everyone a wonderful, warm, storm free summer! Our website is pretty popular! So far on June 9, we have had over five thousand hits! That’s a lot for a small club! July and August are chock full of extra point games for you to earn points towards your next level. These two months we offer extra points every playing day. July features ELEVEN qualifying North American Pairs games, FIVE Junior Fund Games, ONE Unit Championship, and SIX Quarterly Club Championship games. August is the month for those of you looking to earn SILVER Matchpoints! We have a Sectional Tournament at Clubs the beginning Monday, August 13. The rest of August features SIX International Fund games, TWELVE North American Pairs games, and ONE Unit Championship game. Unlike most clubs, Friendship does not charge extra for these extra point games. So join in the fun, and come play bridge! Also, we want to congratulate Ronnie Burman on advancing to Regional Master! Great going, Ronnie! As well, Phyllis Levy earned the level of Bronze Life Master. Congratulations! Once again, this newsletter features an article on someone we all know but don’t really know all that well. Many thanks to Donna Blythe for taking the time to interview Richard Criswell. And, we are so lucky that Kim Hall has allowed us to share some basic rules that he has written about. Thank you, Kim! There is also a summary of our finances thanks to Steve Tiktin. As President, Ben Feinswog shares a few thoughts, and we have more Feinswog Funnies for you. PLEASE, if you have any ideas for our newsletter, let us know. And feedback is always welcome. We want to include things YOU want to know. We hope you enjoy it! Treasurer’s Report by Steve Tiktin With the year half over, this would be a good time to provide our club’s financial information. During the past six months, we have increased our cash position and find that in each month our cash intake exceeded our expenses. Our average table count for the period was about eight and a half tables. We, of course, slow down during the summer months, but for the month of June 2018, we averaged over seven tables per game which exceeded our average table count in June 2017 and June 2016. One of the reasons our attendance is holding up is because of the loyalty of our Board Members and our friendly atmosphere which makes it a great place to play for everyone. Our food, beverage and special event cost is about 50% higher than last year, but it is manageable and is one of the inviting aspects of Friendship. It is nice to see the teamwork that goes into buying and presenting the food. Let's keep working together. Meet Richard Criswell! Happy 92nd Birthday to our own Richard Bingham Criswell on August 10th! Although Richard has a very British name, his DNA includes a Hungarian "Grossman" and a Norman "Croixville aka Crestwell aka Criswell. Perhaps this is why we all find him so charming or is it his baby blues? Richard was born and raised in New York City. He is the son of a sailor, and as such, he and his family loved to travel, enjoying journeys to many countries including Malta, Australia and Nicaragua. He attended Rutgers University before he was called to duty during WWII. He honorably served America as a Radioman aboard LST 49 in the Pacific Theatre and earned a Battle Star for his participation in the perilous invasion of Okinawa! After his tour of duty, Richard co-founded a Latin American advertising chain that spread to seven countries. His advertising career had him in Latin America some twenty years, starting in Caracas in 1956 with periodic stints in Colombia, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and Mexico. After two years in Mexico, he retired to Escondido, CA where he purchased an avocado farm! He spent three years in Escondido until his old company, Leo Burnett, asked him to return and take charge of the creative side of the business for Latin America. In 1980, Richard and his company chose to have their regional headquarters relocate to Miami, which is how we got so lucky as to have him in Florida! He lived in the Gables where he first discovered the Friendship Bridge Club at the Youth Center, and he played his first Miami duplicate game there as a walk-in. New to duplicate bridge but having played a lot of social bridge in his younger years, Richard says he got a lot of help from very patient friends like Karl Perkins, Jody Ledford, Richard DeQuattro and others. In addition to learning more about bridge, Richard is also very proud of having finally earned his remaining six credits to attain his Bachelor of Arts degree from Barry University in 1990. Way to go, Richard! Eventually, after thirty years in all, Richard retired from the advertising business once more and moved to the Silver course of Doral CC where he became a low handicap player, enjoying golf almost daily. Never one to really take it easy, when a Nevada Bob's Discount Golf store opened near to the country club, a golfing friend offered him the opportunity to purchase fifty percent of the franchise, and he went for it! After two years of working the franchise, he decided he really wanted to retire. He sold his half back to his partner and moved up to a golf community (Mariner Sands) in Stuart, FL. Still, his wife, Mirta, who is Uruguayan, missed the Miami Latin connection up north, so they returned south to Miami Shores in 2005. Richard continued playing occasional golf until back problems caused him to stop. That meant good things for all of us. With less time on the course, Richard returned to duplicate bridge while in Miami Shores and more so when he moved back to the Gables about three years ago. He is a loyal and steady partner with over one thousand master points! Richard has five children and nine grandkids. One of his boys, Thomas, lives very close to him, so he enjoys breakfast with him and his family every Sunday morning. His son has two children, a girl almost sixteen and a son twelve. It is a wonderful family that fills the air with happiness. His eldest child is Christine who will be 68 in July. His other two boys are John 60 and Mark 57. Most of all, Richard is a true gentleman with an easy smile in his ever youthful baby face and a sparkle in his baby blues. Happy Birthday to our delightful friend and cherished partner at the Friendship Club! Kim’s Pointers COMMON RULES AND BASIC ETIQUETTE (that all bridge players should know) Rules 1. What Constitutes a Played Card? Whether a card is considered played is different for declarer and for the defenders. For declarer if the card is “on or near the table or in a manner as if to be played,” it is considered played. For defenders, a card is considered played “if the card is played in a manner that, if his partner were looking, he could have seen the card.” When the director is called, he often asks for a visual representation of the playing of the card. 2. When to Announce a Failure to Alert Again, it is different for offense and defense. Defenders should not announce a failure to alert until the play of the hand is over lest she give unauthorized information to partner. When the hand is over, the defender should announce that there has been a failure to alert. She should then explain the alert that should have been made. Declarer should announce his side's failure to alert after the bidding is ended and before the opening lead. Any player should call the director as soon as he realizes that he, himself, has failed to alert. This includes mistaken and missing explanations. 3. The Explanation of an Alert When someone says "alert" and you want to know the meaning, the proper statement is "Please explain." Don’t ask unless you need useful information at that time; otherwise, wait until the bidding has ended and partner has led face-down. If you already know the meaning of the alert, it is illegal to ask for an explanation to help your partner. When explaining an alert, you should tell the actual meaning of the bid -- not the name of the convention. Don’t say “Drury” – instead, say, “limit raise.” If you are not sure what it means, do not guess. Just say you are not sure. 4. Convention Cards All players should have but are not necessarily required to have a completed bridge convention card for the opponents to view. While the convention card is required for tournament play, it is up to individual clubs to determine whether a card is required or not. Regardless, The Laws of Duplicate Bridge specify that "Each partnership has a duty to make available its partnership understandings to opponents before commencing play against them.” Each pair should know what a particular bid means and should be able to explain it when asked. Also, remember that the convention card is for your opponents, not you, and it is illegal to look at your convention card once play has begun. 5.. What to Do When an Irregularity Occurs at the Table Call the director (unless you are the dummy, in which case you should wait until the play is over).

Now that is not to say that you can=t be sociable at the duplicate table. Of course you can.....and should.....just don=t carry it to extreme by talking during the auction or play.

No part of this book may be repro- duced or utilized in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording, or by any information storage and retrieval system without permission in writing from the ACBL. Preface to the Laws of Duplicate Bridge 2008 NORTH AMERICAN EDITION The first Laws of Duplicate Bridge were published in 1928 (until 2008 it was titled The Laws of Duplicate Contract Bridge). There have been successive re- visions in 1933, 1935, 1943, 1949, 1963, 1975, 1987 and 1997. Through the Thirties, the Laws were promulgated by the Portland Club of London and the Whist Club of New York. From the Forties onwards, the American Contract Bridge League Laws Commission replaced the Whist Club, while the British Bridge League and the European Bridge League supplemented the Portland Club’s efforts. The 1975 Laws were also pro- mulgated by the World Bridge Federation Laws Com- mission, as they were in 1987 and 1997. The current version is also promulgated in the remainder of the world by the WBF. This latest revision supersedes the 1997 Code on September 8, 2008. Zonal authorities may implement the new Code any time after January 1, 2008 and be- fore September 30, 2008.

  • Human-Agent Cooperation in Bridge Bidding
    Human-Agent Cooperation in Bridge Bidding Edward Lockhart Neil Burch Nolan Bard Sebastian Borgeaud [email protected] DeepMind DeepMind DeepMind DeepMind Tom Eccles Lucas Smaira Ray Smith DeepMind DeepMind DeepMind Abstract We introduce a human-compatible reinforcement-learning approach to a coopera- tive game, making use of a third-party hand-coded human-compatible bot to gen- erate initial training data and to perform initial evaluation. Our learning approach consists of imitation learning, search, and policy iteration. Our trained agents achieve a new state-of-the-art for bridge bidding in three settings: an agent play- ing in partnership with a copy of itself; an agent partnering a pre-existing bot; and an agent partnering a human player. 1 Introduction Deep reinforcement learning has had great success in two-player, zero-sum games. Key to the suc- cess of the algorithms used for these games is the fact that if neither player can unilaterally improve, the policies must be globally optimal [1], and therefore considering only unilateral policy deviations is sufficient to achieve optimal play. On the other hand, collaborative multi-agent environments have many local optima – agents must coordinate their strategies with each other to perform well. We are particularly interested in human-compatible agents for such domains, because of the general importance of agents that can cooperate with humans. A type of environment where the need for coordination is particularly stark is a communication game; if one agent unilaterally diverges from an agreed “language”, the results are likely to be very poor. The bidding phase of bridge is one such domain, involving grounded communication arXiv:2011.14124v1 [cs.AI] 28 Nov 2020 and competition between two teams of two.
