We all know you're terrible at MP jdonn ;) Haha jk, obv Fred is a very successful player at MP as well as imps (much much moreso than me) so I'm definitely surprised to see him say he wouldn't consider bidding 2S with that because in my mind it was automatic.

Actually my record at MPs, at least as far as wins go, is not good. I do have a good record at BAM and a lot of nearish wins in big MP events.

 

Unlike many of the players who I consider my peers, I like matchpoints and I have made some effort to take that form of the game seriously.

 

About my record compared to yours - I have 20 years on you. I expect it will take less time than that for you to leave me in your dust :)

My proudest matchpoint result spans two tournaments - 12th (2002) and 7th (2006) in the last two runnings of the World Open Pairs. In both events my partner and I were leading or close to leading at a fairly late point. That was fun.

 

12th and 7th is not in same league as the incredible 1st and 3rd that Fantoni-Nunes produced in these events, but it is not so bad either ;)

 

Looking forward to the 2010 edition in Philadelphia...
