HeavyDluxe Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 15 of 17 predict Italy wins the Bowl, one USA 2 homer call and one hopeful Norwegian smile.gif who kindly put Netherlands in 2nd, rerun of the 1993 final.*ahem* Not simply a homer call! As I said in my post, why pick Italy like everyone else? If USA2 won, I'd look like a genius. Also note my stunning integrity... I did not waver from my pick even when the news came that Soloway wouldn't be making the trip (meaning no offense to Jlall's pop, of course). Integrity. Of course, I'm also looking like a huge loser. B) But I'm used to this, especially re: bridge. Good luck to one and all... And thanks for running this, Gerben! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted October 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 Only three players got 6 QF picks right, lowerline, edmunte1 and Roland Wald. In the VC, most got at least 6, some got 7. Nigel Guthrie got 7 of the Senior's QFists right. All in all, Edmunte is ahead at the QF stage, 38 points. ************ Included the QF results now, ahead with 48 points... Harald Skaeran, and looking strong since he picked Netherlands & Norway as finalists, one of which will for sure be there (and the others all have Italy wrong). Leading in the Bermuda Bowl so far is Roland Wald (24), Aberlour in the Venice Cup (22), Harald and I in the Senior's Bowl (9) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossoneri Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 I demand a refund! :P Who expected Italy to be knocked out so soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted October 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Semifinal results included: 1. Harald Skaeran, 582. Roland Wald, 563 - 5. Paul Gipson, Edmunte, Dluxe, 52 No other players can win at this point. Ahead in the Bermuda Bowl is Roland Wald but Harald will overtake him if Norway wins. Ahead in the Venice Cup are Paul Gipson and Aberlour. Paul will win this if USA wins, Dluxe will win this if Germany wins. Ahead in the Senior's Bowl are Nigel and I, but we disagree on the winner.

HeavyDluxe Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 First off, thanks for Gerben for the game and for tracking the results! This made the whole Championship a ton of fun. I only regret that I couldn't watch more of the matches live! Congrats to the Harald for the win. 4/5. Roland: 564/5. Dluxe: 56I suspect this will be the pinnacle of my achievements in bridge. I just won't tell people that it was a pick 'em pool. :) Thanks everyone... It was fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
