🍵i talk to my * EX * (bridge partner)

Bridge is a partnership game, and I think it is this very fact which makes it all the more alluring (compared to other mind sports like chess and go) Yet, no partnership is perfect. Partnerships require effort, trust, and communication. Just like relationships. And sometimes, it just doesn't work out. I had a honest chat with my ex bridge partner 3 years after we parted ways. We discuss: what it was like, was there any external "pressure"? what we didn't do, but should have done, any "final" burning questions what we appreciated about each other our growth since we parted ways what we wished went differently how and why we parted ways how bridge has changed our lives I hope that through us sharing our real, honest experiences and reflections, you'll have something to take away which is relevant to your own partnership. This one's special. ❤️ [Filmed at 2026 Asia Cup Bridge Tournament] Chapters: 00:00 Trailer 1:10 Intro, how his team is doing in the tournament 1:52 What he thought of our partnership, what happened in the end 2:30 Our history as a pair 5:51 Our experience at the World Bridge Team Championships 2022 (Wuhan Cup) 9:18 Where he's at now 13:12 What pissed me off 14:06 What he thinks I could have done better 16:41 What about the good stuff? 27:20 How to improve as a bridge player? 28:57 An anecdote from the World Youth Bridge Team Championships 2023 31:10 Moving on from each other 32:21 The tipping point? 38:14 On Youth tournaments 41:26 LIP READING TIME T_T 44:25 [UNMUTED] On playing competitively 48:20 Appreciation for him 50:43 What's next? 52:58 Our differences, plus some personal backstory 57:43 How Bridge has changed our lives His Asia Cup vugraph matches: vs Taiwan (featured hand): https://www.bridgebase.com/tools/hand... vs Hong Kong China B: https://www.bridgebase.com/tools/hand...
