GreenMan Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 We showed up! That's the best you can say about my performance. :unsure: kristen33 and jillybean were their usual steady selves. My young partner did well. I was hoping he'd declare every contract we played, but it was not to be. (Check out board 8. I wouldn't have made that contract in a million years.) Throughout the match I noticed one important factor: The more active pair came out ahead on virtually every deal. We lost a lot of IMPs when jec/BridgeGoth wouldn't let us play in the contract that was reached in the other room. They just wear you down that way. We only had one double-digit swing, but all those 5s and 6s added up fast. (And every time I took a conservative view in the auction, we lost more IMPs.) Thanks again. We enjoyed it a lot. Onward! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Thanks team mates. Another great experience and friendly opponents, they don't scare me so much anymore.I butchered the defense on Board2 and let tricks slip on others but generally I was happy with my performance, my declarer play is improving slowly. Board10 had me sweating, if I had opened the routine 2N I would have had a much easier time. ;) http://www.bridgebase.com/myhands/hands.php?traveller=1524-1372528949-52849200&username=jillybean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
