Member Profile - Jack Burk

You may know Jack from his silver hair and goatee,

But Did You Know….

When Jack was an undergrad at Ole Miss (we won’t hold that against him) he had the opportunity to play bridge against Charles Goren around 8 times at tournaments.

Jack claims (?) that he once bid and made slam against him, for which Goren offered his congratulations.

It is said that the calories help the brain function better and improve one’s game. Well that the assumption until proven wrong.

Member Profiles
Our club has nearly 200 regular players and, if you play frequently, you may recognize them, know most of their names and their skill at bridge.

But what do you know about them outside bridge or away from the club?

Many of our members have unique stories that you certainly would find interesting and to highlight some of them, our Baton Rouge Duplicate Bridge Club Member Profiles will tell their stories.

If you or someone you know have an interesting and unique story that you would like to share, contact Keith Sliman at 225-266-0739 or [email protected].
