American champion Jeff Meckstroth talks about playing bridge as a career, the responsibility he feels towards up-and-coming champions, and his thoughts on Meckwell. But first, we kibitz!

See Jeff's profile on the ACBL Hall of Fame.

When it comes to books, Reese is Jeff's favorite bridge author--he likes his writing style. But Kelsey's books on defense were the ones he found most instructive.
