It's only a disc from the Andrew Robson Bridge Club - has card play and

So a physical disc not a file you have downloaded.

Does the drawer of the player have any mention of DVD embossed onto it?

If "No" you don't have the required hardware to play a DVD. Stop.

If "Yes" try VLC, as previously linked, to play the disc.

If VLC fails is the disc a commercially produced stammped DVD one or a
short run home produced "burnt" DVD? A home produced DVD might be a bad
burn. Try it in a normal DVD player and TV.
