Sorry, Partner

Australian champion Justin Mill joins us to talk about why he only plays bridge with people he’s happy to have to his house for dinner, how having fun is the key to improving your game, and why you should never play a convention unless you know what you are giving up as well as what you are gaining to play it. Plus, he shares his top tip for developing players. But first, we kibitz!

See Justin's entry-switching squeeze hand HERE. And his recipes HERE

Curious about Gazilli? Take a look at Peter Hollands' Gazilli video HERE.

Find all our recommended books HERE.

We'd be so grateful if you could "follow", "like" and "review" the show.
