Joyce Klein – June, 2007 She married Manny, who was her biggest fan– How is it possible?–How can it be? He was her best bridge playing man! That Helen has 17,500 more points than me?? She often played with her cousin from Tennessee– She doesn’t play many conventions, which I think is a sin– Who had no idea of what a could be! but she surely knows how to win! She played the king and always lost to the ace– and the queen was always out there–in outer space! She can count out a hand at trick two– And then she claims & you don’t even know what happened to you! With a six card minor, her partner, Homer, bid one no – Doing it that way–he didn’t have to jump! And when you step out of line–you know you’re in trouble– when out comes her red card–for a penalty double! I could not begin to calculate her percentage of wins– But by now, she should have 67 Life Master pins! And when her partner mis-bids & whom she’d like to hit– she still manages to make six–on her four/two hit! She has won the Ace of Clubs title for 17 years in a row– And she’s our club’s most famous celebrity–that we know! She hates the one no trump force– because she likes to bid what she has, of course! We love playing against her– And Bergen raises she thinks are a waste– And look forward to the times that she could afford– because when her partner raises her– to give us at least one good board! she just goes right to game in great haste! Her acheivements in far surpass us all– She can bid too much–when the right time occurs– And most of us will never reach that goal! because the opponents are afraid to double her! But we’re proud to have a Grand Champion in our midst– Her bids makes ours look sick– She’s number one on our "A" List! When she –she’s going to take a lot of tricks! We’d like to present you with this award– She plays in no trump so much that her opponents get annoyed– A solid gold one–we could not afford! Especially when she makes it–and has a ! For the 20,000 times you’ve played– She can remember all 52 cards in every hand she ever played– This trophy honors the 20,000 points you’ve made And what the score was, and what she made! She never bids when her opponents make a take-out double– She doen’t want to burst their bubble– Then when their partner picks a suit– 72% GAMES she doubles them, scores 1100, and collects all the loot! Date Players Venue Score I watched her play once in a midnight Speedball Swiss– 6/19/07 Shelly Salvi and Edith Denenberg Pompano 72.03% Five minutes for 3 boards–And she never missed! 6/29/07 Phillip Heasley and Leanne Weissler Wynmoor Village Bridge Club 72.67% 7/2/07 Florence Friedman and Sybil Levin Wynmoor Village Bridge Club 73.11% She’s always had a stable of good men– with a woman partner now & then! Al, Frank, Steve, Marty, Rick, Abe & Mort- are the ones that she did court! 54 ACBL - District 9 www.District9ACBL.org 55 UNIT 243–TAMARAC BRIDGE CLUB WINNERS FORT LAUDERDALE B.C.
