RunemPard Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Put me in as a single...I would love to try again with someone. If anyone is interested in playing, we can work on bid/play for the next 3 weeks. I am self rated as Advanced, but I do have some very great days. :P I live in Sweden and am typically not online past 6-7PM EST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siegmund Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 A regular p of mine not active on the forums (dougd) and I would be interested in giving this a shot, if there is ever a saturday you run one that I am free - cannot play the 8th, but we'd be interested in the 15th.

mgoetze Posted September 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Less than a week now, so, who's playing? I'm flying back from China the day after tomorrow and hope to have a large selection of players to choose from when I come home. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimG Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Let me double check with my partner, but I think we should be able to make it (and I think it will be fun to play in a JEC match). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgoetze Posted September 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 38-41 after 24 boards, unfortunately we dropped some IMPs on the last 4 for a final margin of 47-67. Nice try guys, better luck next time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I think we did great and I really felt like we held our own against those guys. Apart from the kickback disaster and the hand below, we had a verysolid game. Thank you, thank you to our team mates and Micheal, Timo, Larry L, BBO, BBF, my partner and everyone ♥, I would never get the opportunity to play against these guys in real life. What a fantastc experience. Here's the hand that is still making me feel sick...

My partner had someone talking to him on the hand with the kickback fiasco, and probably didn't know about the undo, or it was too late.

mike777 Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 1) talking and forgetting kickback on hand vs jec ugg2) forgetting all undoes onkickback ok...ugg3) in any event think about why so happy with your game try of 3h, pard can pass, when other table makes strong slam try. 4) in any event you guys played great we all can see it did not take fancy squeezes or fancy bids to win.....really interesting match...thank youall.
