Bridge may not play well on TV but you can find all recent major championships in stored online movies and you can watch online with expert commentary as they are played, using the BBO vugraph interface. The term for watching bridge is “kibitzing,” although a bridge kibitzer is expected to remain silent at all times.
These are not movies with people’s faces but screens which show all four hands, the bidding, and the cards played in order by clicking next.
If you do not have an id at BBO sign up now! The USBF senior and women’s championships start tomorrow, Friday July 12, in Florida and they will be vugraphed starting Saturday. Click here for the vugraph schedule. Of course you can also play bridge at the BBO site …
To find old play records as “movies” you can go to the BBO archives or you can go to the USBF site and look at results of recent tournaments.
