MiniBridge is an interesting card game in its own right, offering many of the advantages attributed to playing bridge (meeting people, memory and logic exercises, working cooperatively with a partner) but it avoids one of the major complexities (bidding).  That makes it a much easier game to get to grips with.  This is a chance to find out how the game works, to learn some of the techniques (which apply equally in the game of bridge), and to enjoy a game of MiniBridge with the other group members.
