by Morris Jones 07 Feb '21

07 Feb '21

Join us for our big Sunday afternoon game! * 12:30 Open Pairs Drop me a note if you have a friend from out of town who wants to play. If you don't have a partner, I can usually find a way to get you into the game -- especially if you're willing to play with someone from the BBO substitutes list. :) 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>

Wednesday Bridge 0-500 and Open pairs
by Morris Jones 03 Feb '21

03 Feb '21

Two big games today! * 10:45 0-500 Pairs * 7:30 Open Pairs If you have a friend from "out of town" who'd like to play, let me know as soon as you can! If you don't have a partner, I can usually get you into the game. Let me know you're coming and I'll make plans. I also have the 7:15 Newcomer game tonight. For that game we play 12 boards, and hold a Zoom postmortem after the game, usually with an adult beverage. :) Tom Lill will be covering the Open Pairs game for the second half.

Bridge today 0-500 Pairs 10:45
by Morris Jones 02 Feb '21

02 Feb '21

I know every day seems like Groundhog Day, but this is the actual official one. :) * 10:45 0-500 (499er) Pairs If you'd like to play, come on out! I learned a clever trick from another director in yesterday's "Virtual Club Roundtable" with the ACBL. If you're in the Partnership Desk at game time, I can use a spare account of mine to get you into the game before it starts, then sub myself out with a player from the Substitutes list. If you don't mind playing with a pick-up partner, it's the way to go!

Bridge tonight! 7:15 0-1000
by Morris Jones 01 Feb '21

01 Feb '21

We have our popular 0-1000 bridge game tonight! * 7:15 0-1000 Pairs (999er? well ok!) As always, if you need a partner, drop me a note. Many folks have had luck adding their name to the Partnership Desk before the game. Also if you have a friend from out of town who wants to play, let me know well in advance so they can be added. See you tonight! 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>

Sunday Bridge 12:30
by Morris Jones 31 Jan '21

31 Jan '21

Open pairs today at 12:30! If you're looking for a partner, drop me a note. You might also try the Partnership Desk in the tournament. If you have a friend from "out of town" who'd like to play, let me know well in advance so I can add them to our Friends list. If you're curious, I try to track how many visiting players we have. I track on a monthly basis -- ACBL is tracking on a weekly basis -- but my count is pretty flat throughout the month. I'm currently running about 6.5% visitors. The official limit is 15%. So it's okay. :) We do have a handful of players from out of the area who have become "virtual" locals. They enjoy playing in our games, and meeting and playing with familiar players from the local clubs. I think that's delightful. :) See you at 12:30!

Wednesday bridge
by Morris Jones 26 Jan '21

26 Jan '21

Wednesdays are busy at PPDVBC: * 10:45 0-500 Pairs * 7:30 Open Pairs Plus we have the Newcomer game with Zoom postmortem at 7:15. This game adds value to the 7:30 Open Pairs, so it's really worthwhile. Let me know if you're looking for a partner, or have a friend from "out of town" who'd like to play. :) There's also a group of us who have been getting together on Wednesday afternoons at 2:30 p.m. to play on RealBridge. It's a fairly experienced field. We love team matches, so we play a round robin team game if we have an even number, or an IMP pairs match if we don't. There are no masterpoints and no director, but we play on RealBridge, so we see and hear each other as we play. If this appeals, drop me a note and I'll see how the turnout looks. I'll send a note to the Newcomers about their game and Zoom after party tomorrow Wednesday morning.
