Bridge for your coffee break …

Bridge Players love puzzles! Crosswords, jigsaws, word play, logic problems …. and the ultimate puzzle, the game of bridge itself. On this page you will find links to bridge quizzes, puzzles, contests, articles and whatever else I can find to entertain and challenge you during your coffee break.

Play a few hands!

My go-to when I have just a few minutes is somewhere I can play a few challenging hands. My favourite places are:

IntoBridge – Now has an app. You can play Ranked hands, one by one, or you can play the Daily Challenge where you play 5 hands and are ranked against some famous player. All play is with robots.

WBT Bridge – This app is new for me and I’m enjoying it a lot. Play a 4-hand tournament and ‘Beat Great White’ – I’m not sure what that means but I enjoy the tournaments! All play is with robots.

Fun Bridge – This app also has a 4-hand tournaments and a surprisingly pleasing sound to the play of the cards. All play is with robots.
