  • Your Editor Asked Me to Pen a Few Words About the Seniors Congress
    Your editor asked me to pen a few words about the Seniors Congress at elegant Eastbourne, but time has rolled on through the Riviera Congress at touristy Torquay and the annual week long jamboree that is the EBU Congress in bizarre Brighton. (Please bear in mind that I am not a sun seeker and Gayle and I treat these trips as part of our holidays, but taken in small doses.) We have been playing at these events for some years, and have built up a goodly number of friends and / or teammates with whom it is fun to play, dine and drink. As to the bridge, it really is another world away from club bridge, despite there being the usual 52 cards. Would you double this hand for a Spade lead? North 86 AK7 AJT85 QJ8 AQT4 73 T54 Q963 Q762 94 64 KT732 KJ952 J82 K3 A95 North /South have 27 points – bid to 3NT , but West doubled the contract for a Spade lead. How was West able to tell East that he wanted a Spade lead? West did this because their system allowed them to use a double to call for a lead of the last suit bid by North/South. This happened to be Spades! So how do you make 3NT*, for a top or are you 1 down for a bottom. What’s the fun if we get beaten up like the above hand? We get the chance to play against top players, including England’s World and European champion ladies, and European champion Seniors men, together with a host of other professionals who earn their living from bridge.

As always, our goal is to provide information and to foster change for the better in a manner that is entertaining, instructive and stimulating. The ACBL Board of Directors is testing a new appeals process at NABCs in 1999 and 2000 in which a Committee (called a Panel) comprised of pre-selected top Directors will hear appeals at NABCs from non-NABC+ events (including side games, regional events and restricted NABC events). Appeals from NABC+ events will continue to be heard by the National Appeals Committees (NAC). We will review both types of cases as we always have traditional Committee cases. Panelists were sent all cases and invited to comment on and rate each Director ruling and Panel/Committee decision. Not every panelist will comment on every case.

  • 2018 CIN Commentary
    ECatsBridge Pairs for BBC Children in Need Thursday 15 November 2018 Session No 7521 Well ... another year has gone by and here we are again with another edition of the Children in Need Pairs. We really hope 2018 will be a very special year as with your help and a following wind, as they say, we rather hope to hit the one million pound mark ... wouldn't that be amazing? Since we started running this event, you have between you all raised a staggering £956,122.84. Can we do it ? Only time will tell be we believe and hope that the answer is yes! For this set the commentator was Julian Pottage - Did he get it right I wonder ? Our thanks go to him as always - we really appreciate the effort that goes in to writing these commentaries. So ... did you win ? or did you have a disaster ? Or just, as we hope, an enjoyable evening's bridge helping to raise money for a wonderful cause ? Thank you all for coming along to your clubs and supporting us - we really hope you had fun and enjoyed the hands. I hope they weren't too difficult, but equally not too easy either. I haven't actually looked at them myself, just ran the dealing program and winged them off to the commentators. And Mark doesn't play bridge at all (never has!) so they wouldn't mean a thing to him! Take care - and continue to enjoy your bridge With our very best wishes Anna & Mark Anna Gudge & Mark Newton The ECatsBridge Team [email protected] https://www.ecatsbridge.com 1 Board 1.

  • The Four Stars Teams Final
    Brian’s Brighton – Part Nine The Four Stars Teams Final Members of the English Open team dominated the Four Stars final on the last day of this year's Brighton Congress. The team of Justin and Jason Hackett, Alastair Kent and Andrew Mcintosh led for much of the way before being overtaken by the eventual winners, David Gold and Tony Forrester, Alexander Allfrey and Andrew Robson. Round 2. Board 10. Dealer East. All Vul. West North East South ♠ A J 9 Penfold Gold B. Senior Forrester ♥ 5 – – 1♥ Pass ♦ J 8 1♠ 3♣ 3♥ 5♣ ♣ A K 8 7 4 3 2 5♥ All Pass ♠ K Q 10 6 5 4 2 ♠ 8 3 ♥ Q 9 6 ♥ A K J 10 7 4 ♦ K 4 ♦ A Q 7 6 ♣ 9 ♣ J ♠ 7 ♥ 8 3 2 ♦ 10 9 5 3 2 ♣ Q 10 6 5 This deal was something of a triumph for intermediate jump overcalls. Most of us play weak jumps and, indeed, at the other table North therefore bid only 2♣. North/South might still have found the excellent save - 5♣ is only down one - but failed to do so and conceded -620. At our table David Gold's intermediate 3♣ made it possible for Tony Forrester to jump to game and put Sandra Penfold under pressure. How could she not bid 5♥? Forrester led his singleton spade to the king and ace. Gold thought a bit then cashed the king of clubs before giving the spade ruff for down one and -100. That meant 12 IMPs to the eventual winners.
