Bridge Results 5 Sep 2017
Well, well ! The evening was coolish, the hands were anything but ordinary and there was somewhat of a buzz going on. You see, there were several hands that were really perfect for competitive bidding. My favourite hand of the evening was, however, board 6. 6D can be made, but you have to be a combination of a mental contortionist and a bridge savant in order to calculate all the possibilities and final pathway to success on a 6D contract. Look at it and see what I mean.
Whew! But guess what, the hugely talented pair of yours truly and Bram came up trumps tonight and scraped into first place, just ahead of the industrious and hard studying Caroline and Marianne, who also dead heated with Di and Barbara.
Oh what a night! But now we look forward to Thursday and cannot wait to pick that first hand up and compete!
