What fun! I’ll bet you miss him.
In one game I took the bidding up to 6 hearts, Dad then took it to 7. I thought, ‘why is he doing this? His bidding told me nothing. EAST-West doubled. He looked at them and redoubled. oh, boy.....
So I have to play the game while put down his cards. I gambled on one play and it worked, thinking that West, not East, had the only trump card that could stop us. He didn’t play it when he should have and I eventually had him surrender it.
Jack Daniels never tasted better. I do miss him.
