Bobby Wolff has been there and seen it all, and here he describes his own life and career in bridge with honesty and emotion. As a multiple world champion, and former president of both the ACBL and the World Bridge Federation, no one is better placed to discuss the big issues that face the game of bridge today. He can talk authoritatively about players cheating at the top levels of the game, destructive bidding systems, sponsorship, professional players, and all the other big issues that others are afraid to talk about. As always, he is prepared to tell it like it is and let the chips fall where they may.

Bobby Wolff (Las Vegas) is one of the all-time great American bridge players. He started winning world championships in the 1960s with the famous Dallas Aces. Since then he has accumulated 11 world titles, 10 silver and bronze medals in world play, and over 30 national titles. In 1994 Wolff was unanimously elected to the WBF Committee of Honour, and he is a member of the Bridge Hall of Fame. His 'Bridge with the Aces' column, which has been appearing for over 25 years, is syndicated by United Feature Syndicate in more than 130 newspapers worldwide.

"Readers expecting a Harvey's hamburger (hot and juicy) will not be disappointed. Lots of stories from high level bridge, scandals and colorful characters will all be found here, sprinkled with a few inetersting bridge deals. Too bad this book is not longer. Whether you like Bobby or hate him, he remains the bridge personality of the 20th century and reading this book is a must for everyone interested in goings on behind the closed doors of high level bridge."
- George Retek

"The book is well written and beautifully produced. If you like reading about bridge politics and intrigue, cheating, professional play, sponsors, battling against beaurocracy and what can be done for the future of bridge, you will find it a very rewarding purchase."
- London Evening Standard

"Wolff take the reader on a roller-coaster ride, describing his early years of bridge playing, his time as a member of the first professional bridge team - the Dallas Aces, his reaction to some of the most notorious cheating scandals connected with the game, and his take on sponsorship and professional players. Reading his autobiography, bridge players will learn to admire him as he shares his up-close and personal knowledge of the history of the game, infusing it with his own honesty and candour."
