  This story appeared in the ACBL Bulletin a few months back, but I 
had a chuckle on remembering it now so I thought I'd relate it for those
who might have missed it. It also shows the reverence with which some hard
core bridge players hold the game. It concerns a well-known expert who was
known to be having an affair with another woman (which his wife also knew
about). He and his wife were at a tournament and she was overheard yelling
at him, "You may be sleeping with her but you are NOT going to play bridge
with her!"
