An immeasurable number of post-mortem sessions, kibitzes, and teaching moments—often over coffee, always with humor
Billy didn’t just win. He innovated, mentored, and competed with a sense of purpose and joy.
The Man Behind the Masterpoints
Those who knew Billy remember much more than just a fierce competitor.
He was always learning, always exploring. In between sessions, you might find him:
Perfecting a new bidding gadget with longtime partner Eddie Kantar
Wagering on a tennis match before breakfast
Playing all-night backgammon matches where “double or nothing” was practically a mantra
Yet beneath his competitive streak was deep generosity. Many of today’s top professionals credit B.E. with a game-changing tip, a timely partnership, or a reminder that bridge, at its best, is a game meant to be loved.
It’s that last one—Bridge—that connects him to us. What started as a paid incentive to learn a “dying card game” turned into a lifelong passion for Tom. From Sunday games in the common room to international tournaments with legends like Zia and Bill Gates, Tom discovered that bridge isn’t just about cards—it’s about connection. He founded the Amherst Bridge Club and built cross-generational relationships that shaped his worldview and leadership.
At Bridge Unleashed, we believe in the power of new voices like Tom’s to carry this game forward—bridging age, culture, and experience through play, partnership, and purpose.
