This morning's lesson on entries is now available on YouTube, in the playlist of other lessons. There was some fun discussion about the transition from online bridge to bridge with real cards. I left that on the front of the video. :) Today's video: https://youtu.be/RqjD4WxvMEI Full playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD5qT1hFf-OreW5_zBRHB3WwF6Ljdp-OS Best regards, Mojo -- Morris Jones, Monrovia, CA BridgeMojo <http://bridgemojo.com> Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers <http://otastro.org> Mojo's Blog <http://mojo.whiteoaks.com>

I have one brand new player looking for a partner for the 12:20 game today. Is there anyone on the sidelines who might like to come play this afternoon?

Welcome to 2021! Let's get started with a mini-lesson at 9:30, and an official newcomer game at 12:20. First, the link for the Zoom mini-lesson (this link should be good through March): Time: Jan 2, 2021 09:30 AM Pacific Time (US and Canada) Join Zoom Meeting https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83912578991?pwd=Y1R2UnJ1TFM2dVZzYmsyTDdzeFcydz09 Meeting ID: 839 1257 8991 Passcode: 7ntxx Then we have our duplicate bridge game at 12:20. We'll play 12 hands for about 90 minutes. Please *send me a note* if you'd like to play, and be sure to let me know *who your partner will be* or if you need one. I can usually find partners with some notice. It's always helpful in an email to remind of your *BBO ID* along with your *partner's BBO ID* when you write. :) Here are the players I'm expecting so far: Saturday 12:20 Newcomer Pairs Name BBO Name BBO Julie Miller millerja Xiaoyan Zhou xyzzuz Noel Jeffrey Silverharv Allen York puddlefolk Georgia Seid Gseid Kathy Baghdassarian kathybag Laura Rose laurarosep Aleen Lilac aka Jane Houston Jones jhjones52 Jean Wortman acesw1n Best regards, Mojo -- Morris Jones, Monrovia, CA BridgeMojo <http://bridgemojo.com> Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers <http://otastro.org> Mojo's Blog <http://mojo.whiteoaks.com>

Last night we held a casual New Year's Eve team tournament on RealBridge. I wrote up a short article for BridgeMojo in case you're curious how it went. Here's a link to the article: https://bridgemojo.com/node/68 This picture was my view of the tournament. The director view is on the laptop, with my table during round three of the game.
