  • Furious Comeback Wins Senior KO for Budd Team
    November 16-November 26, 2000 Birmingham, Alabama 74th Fall North American Bridge Championships Daily Bulletin Vol. 74, No. 7 Thursday, November 23, 2000 Editors: Henry Francis and Jody Latham Furious comeback wins Senior KO for Budd team The team captained by Richard Budd of Portland ME went into the final 16 boards with fierce deter- mination – they didn’t want to finish second again in the Senior Knockout Teams. They were 28 IMPs down, but they were confident they could turn the match around against the team captained by Richard Sternberg of West Palm Beach FL. And turn it around they did! They piled up 78 IMPs while holding their foes to only 9 to win the championship by 41 IMPs, 150-109. What made the victory all the more pleasing was the fact that they were beating the team that defeated them in the final in Boston last year. Playing with Budd were Robert Ryder, Caldwell NJ; William Hunter, Reading MA; Shome Mukherjee, Randolph MA; Richard De Martino, Riverside CT, and Pat McDevitt, Brookline MA. On the Sternberg team were Allan Cokin, Palm Beach FL; Bernie Chazen, Tamarac FL; Chuck Burger, West Bloomfield MI; Richard Reisig, Boynton Beach FL; Robert Lipsitz, Palm Harbor FL. The teams were not exactly the same as they were in Boston. Chuck Burger replaced Billy Eisenberg on the Sternberg team, and BUDD added DeMartino, a new member of the ACBL Board, and McDevitt. It was a tough, hard-fought match all the way. BUDD led, 17-13, after the first quarter, and increased the lead to six at the half, 55-49.
