For anyone interested in bridge history, vugraphs of the complete 1955 BB are now up on Nikos's site :

http://www.sarantako...ph/1955/bb.html

You can watch the great players of the past in action including Reese, Schapiro, Roth and Mathe. Various reports that I've seen pick Adam Meredith - with his love for the spade suit - as man of the match.

Meredith's love of Spades can be seen in many of the hands. An article in
this month's EBU magazine, English Bridge, by Mike Wemble picks out bds 28,
47, 62 ,66, and 111 just from the first half. His play of 3NT on board 33 is
often shown as a good example of his great card playing skill.

Hi,

thanks.

Since I like GIB and the tournaments provide by Matthew
Ginsberg, I will combine your link, with the following link
http://www.gibware.com/lin2pbn.
The program allows the conversion of *.lin files to *.pbn
files, which are understood by GIB.

With kind regards
Marlowe

PS: Sry. the link seems out of date, does somebody know a link,
which does still work?
With kind regards

Richard Pavlicek has kindly given me the following relevant link to one of his bidding polls: I know it's two years old but still interesting to test yourself and read the analyses.
