Social Bridge Tuesday Evenings
We have some free Tuesday evenings between PCC classes. Why not get
together and play some bridge?
I'm offering five relaxed bridge games on Tuesday evenings, 7:15-9:15,
using the remarkable RealBridge <https://realbridge.online/> platform
from the UK. Here we play with full audio and video of our table mates.
It's the closest thing that I've seen to a real bridge game at home with
friends!
After each game, we'll gather on Zoom to discuss bidding and play. We
can compare with the other tables in the game, and I'll offer my
perspective on each hand. The deals will be random shuffles, so even I
don't know what to expect!
* Five Tuesday evenings, 7:15 - 9:15, March 23 - April 20.
* $9 for a single session, $40 for all five
* No director, no masterpoints, no pressure!
* Reply to this email to sign up

Bridge cruise to Barcelona 2022
I'm joining Karol and Guy Monroe for a 14-night cruise departing Miami
on April 5, 2022. The ship is the Regent Seven Seas Splendor.
The bridge program includes a full ACBL Silver-point Sectional at Sea,
with great games and classes to level up your bridge skills.
The available staterooms for the bridge package are bound to go quickly
with everyone eager to get out of the house. Visit the 2022 Miami
Barcelona cruise page here
<https://www.monroetravelconnect.com/2022-miami-barcelona.html> for lots
more information, and to reserve your room as soon as you can!
Competitive Bidding (PCC)
The Competitive Bidding class from Audrey Grant offers what I believe is
the most powerful set of tools available for advancing club and
tournament bridge players.
I'm offering this class through PCC Extension on Tuesday evenings
starting on April 27.
Space in this class is limited and I expect it to fill quickly! Register
through PCC Extension at this link.

We're still busy playing and teaching bridge online! Take advantage of
my weekly Saturday morning bridge mini lessons. I cover a single topic
in 15 minutes.
You can join in person on Zoom

or have a look at previous topics on my YouTube channel playlist

We also have games for new bridge players every Wednesday evening and
Saturday afternoon. If you'd like to join the game, contact me or join
our notification email list
<https://mailman.bridgemojo.com/postorius/lists/newcomers.bridgemojo.com/>.
I'll send a note before every game.
What happens this summer?
Jane is expecting her second vaccination shot soon, and I'm looking
forward to scheduling mine as soon as I can.
I'm expecting many of you will be making plans to scatter to the four
corners of the globe this summer! Jane and I are doing the same.
After Memorial Day, I won't be scheduling any new formal bridge classes
until fall.
(The Saturday mini lessons might continue though!)
