Tuesday 8 July 2025

We had a lesson on interfering with the declarer on defense in Adv Beginner and Asking about Kings in Slam bidding in Beginners.

Next week we will continue on Defensive interference (No penalty for it, this is bridge not Football!)   in advanced beginners and Gerber in beginners.

We had 6.5 tables in the pupil game and welcomes a new participant, Al Bowen who played with yours truly and managed to pull me up to second place at 58.12%. First place (58.33%) went to Jean L. and Elizabeth B. (back from a long time away and playing like she never left!).  The Cullys came in third with 55.62%.  

I will see some of you at the boot cap this weekend and the rest of you next Tuesday!  --Carl

 

 

 

 THIS SATURDAY, July 12

Another Bridge Boot Camp is happening  July 12, 2025

What it will be like:

    We will discuss up to 27 randomly dealt boards, one at a time.  Attendees will all bid and play the same hand, followed by discussion of how I would have bid  and played the hand and why. A hard copy of the hands and my discussion of the bid and play will be provided at the end of the camp.  I will have enough sets of cards to handle up to 6 tables.  If needed, due to extra players that don't fill out a table, some players may need to rotate as observers, but no one will need to do so for more than a few of the hands.  That will only happen if we have one or two extra because I will fill out the table if we have three extra.

It will start at 10 AM and continue until 4 PM or until 27 boards have been discussed, whichever comes first.  There will be a 15 minute break for lunch at about noon, but no lunch will be available, so bring your own.  

The fee will be $15/person, which is divided between Centennial Hall, North Hampton DBC, and me.

If you have any questions, email me at cvwikstrom@gmail.com.  Hope to see you there!  ---Carl
