Reisinger

 

Past History of the Reisinger

Many bridge players participate for the Reisinger Trophy, which is a six-session open team-of-four event scored by board-a-match with two qualifying sessions, two semifinal sessions and two final sessions. It was contested as a four-session championship until 1966.

It was known as the Chicago Trophy until 1965. The event began in 1929 as the North American Open Team Championship and the prize was the Chicago Trophy, donated by the Auction Bridge Club of Chicago.

In 1928, the open team competition was for the Harold S. Vanderbilt Cup. The Chicago Trophy was replaced in 1965 by the Reisinger Memorial Trophy, donated by the Greater New York Bridge Association in memory of Mr. Curt H. Reisinger. Mr. Curt H. Reisinger, born in 1891 and died in 1964, of New York City, was a principal patron of contract bridge and the American Contract Bridge League in the early years of both. Mr. Curt H. Reisinger was a great-grandson of Anheuser and a grandson of Busch, co-founders of the brewery from which he inherited great wealth. That wealth enabled him to become a stalwart financial supporter of the game, as well as a noted philanthropist on a far larger scale. In the years when it was often a struggle to meet the League's modest payroll, Mr. Curt H. Reisinger was often called upon and never failed to help with a loan or an outright gift. His support made possible several early contract bridge tournaments, clubs and books. His accomplishments are not all listed here, because that would be an almost impossible feat.

Among the positions in which Mr. Curt H. Reisinger served were director of the United States Bridge Association, president of the Greater New York Bridge Association and Chairman of the ACBL. In 1953, Mr. Curt H. Reisinger was named ACBL Honorary Member.

Many well-known bridge players have competed for the Reisinger Trophy, and we would like to mention a few before we list the Winners of the Reisinger Trophy, and the Runner-Ups. We would like to point out several distinguished players and records.

In 1947, Sally Young, Jane Jaeger, Paula Ribner and Kay Rhodes tie with John Crawford, Ted Lightner, George Rapee and Samuel Stayman, and with another team consisting of Robert Appleyard, Simon Rossant, Morris Berlieant and M.A. Lightman. The four ladies were the first ever women's team to win the Reisinger Trophy.

No team has ever won the Reisinger Trophy three consecutive times except for the team of Nick Nickell, Richard Freeman, Bob Hamman, Bobby Wolff, Jeff Meckstroth, and Eric Rodwell in the three consecutive years of 1993, 1994, and 1995. The team of John Crawford, Charles Goren, Charles Solomon and Sally Young won the Reisinger consecutively in 1937 and 1938. The only other time this feat has been accomplished was in the year 2004 and year 2005 by the following team: Nick Nickell, Richard Freeman, Bob Hamman, Paul Soloway, Jeff Meckstroth, and Eric Rodwell.

In 1955, Mr. Oswald Jacoby won his first Reisinger Trohpy while playing with his son, Mr. James Jacoby, the first ever father and son team. Mr. Oswald Jacoby was also on the winning team in 1983 with Mr. Edgar Kaplan, Mr. Norman Kay, Mr. Richard Pavlicek and Mr. Bill Root.

Mr. John Crawford holds the record for winning the Reisinger Trophy, a number of ten times. His first win was in 1937, and then he won in 1938, 1939, 1942, 1946, 1947, 1953, 1954, 1956 and 1961, all with different teams. Helen Sobel and Sally Young share the record for winning the Reisinger Trophy four times. Helen Sobel became the last woman to win the Reisinger Trophy in 1957.

Note: In the Ellensburg Daily Record, (picture of newspaper), for which Mr. Alfred Sheinwold was the bridge writer and columnist, it is stated that "Alfred Sheinwold ... together with his teammates has just won the nationally famous and coveted Reisinger Trophy Bridge Tournament for the third consecutive year". This is obviously a mis-print since all records show that Mr. Alfred Sheinwold did not win the Reisinger Trophy three years consecutively. It is also published that the team mates were: Edgar Kaplan, Alfred Sheinwold, Ralph Hirschberg, Richard Kahn and alternate Norman Kay. There is no mention in the newspaper article about the officially listed team mates Mr. Leonard Harmon and Mr. Ivar Stakgold, as listed in the Daily Bulletin for the 81st Fall North American Bridge Championships, Friday, November 28, 2008, Volume 81, Number 8, held in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.

The teams do not always consist of members from one country. Sometimes the teams are multi-national. For example, in 1987 the winning team consisted of Zia Mahmood, a Muslim from Pakistani, Jaggy Shivdasani, a Hindu from India, Billy Cohen, a Jew from Canada, and Ron Smith, an African-American. Bridge is certainly a game, where religion and nationality are not the important elements at the table.

Another multi-national team won in 1989. Zia Mahmood from Pakistan, Sam Lev from Israel, Michael Rosenberg from USA, and Mark Molson from Canada.

The record margin of victory in the Reisinger, 10 full boards, was set in 1966 by Robert Jordan, Edgar Kaplan, Norman Kay, Arthur Robinson.

Several of the ACBL presidents and members of the Board of Directors have won the Reisinger: Charles Solomon, Jeff Glick, Waldemar von Zedtwitz, Bobby Wolff, Lew Mathe, Peter Leventritt, John Gerber, Ira Corn, Don Oakie, and Edgar Kaplan.
