I'd be shocked if it either A) wasn't better to just go Native Village/Bridge without the other stuff, and/or B)(maybe you actually did A) you were totally winning anyway, so the black market stuff didn't make any difference.

I'm glad you won and all, but I'm getting a little tired of "I played bridge a lot of times and won" posts now.

Maybe a extra thread for "hey look I played X Bridges" would be good :-)

I agree that playing a bunch of bridges isn't that spectacular.  To clarify, what I thought was neat about this particular game was that I was able to use the King's Court on the same turn that I bought it to end the game when my opponent had no reason to suspect that he had already taken his last turn.

Maybe you shortcutted somehow and I missed it, but how was your Bank worth $7 when you only played a Gold as the other treasure?

He played his other treasure when he played his black market.
