October 25 Master Future Masters Game
The master future masters game is just plain fun. All the pairs have a Life Master and a non-life master. You hear comments like this:

Future Master "Did you just bring off a squeeze?"
Life Master "Yes, it was pretty simple."
Future Master "Cool!"
and
Life Master after a round was over and the EW had left, "You revoked on the last hand."
Future Master "Well we have to tell them."
Life Master "No, that is there job."

So, please join in the fun (costumes optional since it is close to Halloween).

Tips for Tops

If you have a number of equal honors in the closed hand and you want second hand to cover, lead the highest. If you want second hand to duck, lead the second highest. It works like a charm. Eddie Kantar
