Hi! This will be the final May Newcomer game, but I'm pretty sure the
games will continue on Saturday afternoons for quite some time. I should
know for sure very soon.
* 12:20 p.m. Newcomer Pasadena Pomona Downey
Please drop me a note if you'd like to play! I'll send a note tomorrow
morning with the list of players. I believe I have at least one single
player looking for a partner
But this will be my last Saturday morning mini bridge lesson for a
little while. I'll let everyone know when I resume. Here's the link for
tomorrow's:

With my impending vacation, I wanted to let you all know that there are
still lots of ACBL duplicate bridge games for you!
I believe the Saturday Newcomer game will stay on the calendar in June
(I'll let you know as soon as I can), but there are also games available
Monday through Thursday evenings.
See the attached flier for the All Western 99er Nite Club. There are
games for players with fewer than 20 masterpoints, and fewer than 100
points as well. Each game is followed by a post-game discussion hosted
by a great bridge teacher. (I'll be offering to host some as well when
I'm back in town.)
If you haven't already received an invitation to play, send an email to
99erniteclub(a)gmail.com and we'll work on getting you into the games.
(If you don't yet have a free ACBL guest membership, here's information
on how to get your own player number:
https://bridgemojo.com/acbl-guest-memberships )
Best regards,
Mojo

It's Wednesday! Time for the 7:15 Newcomer game. Who's coming to play?
* 7:15 ACBL Newcomer Pairs on BBO
I'll post another message this afternoon with a list of players.
BBO had a major hardware outage late yesterday afternoon. All seems well
today! Hopefully we won't have a repeat today. :)

I'm looking for one player for the Newcomer game this afternoon ...
I'm also looking for one local player who'd like to come play some
in-person bridge and pizza at my house this afternoon. Is there a fully
vaccinated single or a pair available to come play in Monrovia? Game at
4:00, pizza, then a little more bridge.
Best regards,
Mojo

Previous Saturday mini lessons are available on this YouTube playlist:
https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLD5qT1hFf-OreW5_zBRHB3WwF6Ljdp-OS
And Saturday at 12:20, our regular newcomer duplicate game. No after
party, but we play the same hands as the Open game that starts at 12:30.
There's a great opportunity to compare your bidding and play with the
more experienced players.
I have a few pairs already signed up. Send me a note if you'd like to
play. Let me know if you'd like me to find you a partner. I often have a
single player looking.
Best regards,
Mojo

Tonight we have our Wednesday evening newcomer game. I have at least one
single player looking for a partner, so if you'd like to play, don't be shy!
Our evening game is followed by a Zoom after party where we get to laugh
or cry over the cards.
Later this afternoon I'll send out a list of players expected, and a
link to the Zoom party.
Best regards,
