Jacek “Pepsi” Pszczoła

56

Jacek “Pepsi” Pszczoła, a multiple world bridge champion, was part of the international bridge community for many years. Born in Poland, he played under both the Polish and American flags during his outstanding career. He belonged to that unique competitive circle that gathers around the globe for so many days each year that it becomes impossible not to feel at least a little bit like family.

Today, that community is deeply shaken by his untimely passing, after a devastating illness.

We will always remember his extraordinary talent, his smile, and the quiet confidence of a player who had mastered the art of giving partner their time and space… so much so that he would casually open a book and read it while playing dummy.

Rest in peace, Pepsi.
