Camillo Pabis Ticci
Template:Short description Camillo Pabis Ticci (1920–2003)[1] was an Italian bridge player. He joined the national Blue Team in 1963 and played in the Bermuda Bowl tournament with Giorgio Belladonna, whose long-time partner Walter Avarelli was unavailable. From 1964 he played with Massimo D'Alelio, winning 8 world championship titles.
Born in Florence, Pabis-Ticci was an engineer by profession. For many years he wrote "a bridge column in the magazine l'Europeo which was the most successful of its kind in Italy". Beside the Arno Template:Gcb that he and D'Alelio used, he developed the standard system of Tuscany, in effect.[1]
