Probably Warren Buffett.

THere's a few lists here to look through

ACBL hall of fame, ACBL player of the year, ACBL most influential people

Could also ask if they are known for authoring any bridge books/columns

out due to q6

I just assume that's DWetz trolling cuz BRIDGE.

Yeah I saw them. They don't seem to actually list any of those people on wiki though. I only see empty tables. Or am I missing something?


EDIT: nvm, had the names hidden

Click "show" next to "Year inducted"

I'm fine with asking if he's been inducted into the hall of fame.

i would suggest we ask if they are on that list of "Most influential personalities"

either/or, im running out now so you can decide

Has he been inducted into the ACBL Hall of Fame?

Legit read: I think there's a decent chance it's Bobby Levin.

Yes

Here's a list of the living male members of the Hall:

David Berkowitz - former CPA, options trader & bridge author. Doesn't seem like owned a business from quick scan.

Michael Becker - spent his life in bridge until becoming an options trader & started a company with like 50 employees. From a famous bridge family. Legit option.

Billy Eisenberg - coach, teacher, commentator, backgammon, probably no business.

Henry Francis - primarily an editor, but did own a bridge club.

Fred Hamilton - all I see is Army paratrooper + bridge.

Robert Hamman - owns a prize promotion business in Dallas.

Edwin Kantar - bridge author, probably no business.

Sami Kehela - bridge writer & teacher.

Eric Kokish - bridge writer & coach.

Out of time for now, but 2 people who would qualify from A-J from what I read.

Nice work, but can I ask where you got all that info from? I'm not seeing any of that stuff in their wiki links.

If you're sure that's the whole list we can easily just narrow it down by their names.

E.g. does last name begin with A-F

Hall of Fame page has bios.

I haven't gone through L-Z yet. Was hoping someone else would. I can haha.

Just went through the rest of them and the only one that really makes sense is Eric Murray (founded Canadian Bridge Federation, owns law firm). But there might be some people with business interests that aren't listed on their wiki pages, dunno.

But I also feel like if it isn't on their wiki pages, then they aren't really "famous" for it, even secondarily.

I'll just take D1ab's word for it...

Michael Becker - spent his life in bridge until becoming an options trader & started a company with like 50 employees. From a famous bridge family. Legit option.

Robert Hamman - owns a prize promotion business in Dallas.

Eric Murray - law practice.

If there are less than 65 its a lock surely

Just going to ask this so I don't have to do any more work than necessary...

Does the person's last name begin with a letter between A and K?

Yes (though that's kind of a dick question tbh ;p )

Is it? I was just trying to be lazy, my fault.

I like it. Good line, JM3

Looks like he's pinned

Sorry for mistracking on Andre "Bad Moon" Rison on that Q a couple back, guys. I think I would have nailed it in my prime.
