LARRY GORDON
518.37 points
Gordon returned to
bridge two years
ago at Essex Bridge
Center in New
Jersey. In the online
environment, that
club became part of
Alliance Bridge Club,
the largest virtual
club. Alliance's large
games propelled
several of those who
played there most
often to race wins.

ANN GALVANI
486.12 points

Galvani plays mainly
in the large virtual
clubs with the biggest
games, especially
Alliance and her local
Palm Beach club. She
came to prefer online
for several reasons.
It was easier to
eliminate distractions,
play with distant
partners, play more
than once a day and,
most important, to
learn by watching her
partner declare as
dummy.

BALA
SRINIVASAN
475.97 points

A professor of
engineering and
longtime casual
player, Srinivasan
never had time for
more than two or
three sessions a week
since joining in 2018.
But shorter games in
virtual clubs meant he
was able to play two
or three times a day.
" The experience was
intense and vast and
one can really improve
at the game quickly, "
he said.
