In Advanced beginners lessons we discussed the squeeze play and the end play. In Beginners we discussed responding to one of a minor. Next week, we will start our lessons on 2/1 Game Force in Advanced Beginners and we will discuss responding to one of a major in Beginners.

We had six full tables in the Pupil game. Wynne and Betty were the winners with 70%! Second place went to Jan and Tricia with 62,78% and Melissa and Mary Lynn came in 3rd with 55.56 %. It was an amazing set of hands with many slam contracts possible, Very unusual in a randomly dealt 18 board game. Glancing at the results below, 8 hands had a contract of 6 or better possible!

Just two and a half weeks until the Boot Camp on March 8th! No need to sign up. Just show up at 10 AM and be prepared to stay until 4 at Centennial Hall.

See you next week!
