We have Open games today starting at 9:45 and 4:15. Come play if you can!

Dave White will be directing for me today, I'm going to enjoy a day off. :)

Online bridge classes are going well. I'm holding a Zoom seminar Sunday afternoon at 3:30 on playing socially on Bridge Base Online. I'm going to show how to make a table with your friends, and how to invite the robots to play. I'll give some tips on managing the robot's bidding system as well.

I have a nice group coming. If you'd like to join in, drop me a note.

Thursday evening's game had this hand:

Board 15, Dlr. S, Vul. NS


♠K532
Q52
K7
♣Q943

♠AT94
K43
T3
♣A752

♠876
JT
AJ642
♣K86

♠QJ
A9876
Q985
♣JT


Two tables passed the hand out. I thought all four tables might pass it out. But no! In a win for playing 10-12 opening 1NT bids, the Teukolskys opened and played in 1NT making 2.

Another table opened the west hand, second seat, with 1C and landed in 1NT, but didn't score the overtrick. The opening lead was the same, the spade 2.

It might have been interesting to see how this board plays with a few hundred tables. Or not! Would you have opened this hand? :)
