masonbarge Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I started playing BBO in Jan 2014 and started playing in clubs in Feb/March, 2015, after a 35-year layoff. I was a serious player and had to just give it up for career/family. So, my skill level is on the high side of "advanced" - generally close to expert dummy play, decent defense, struggling to learn the fine points of 2/1 and develop bidding judgment. Like a lot of guys with "card sense". I stopped playing BOT tournaments when I discovered Gold Rush :) I was getting 60-70 MP per month but stopped cold so I could get some Gold while still under 750. I'd like to find a good player in a similar situation, or a really talented new player, to grab some color points before my MP get over 750. I have a few people to play with in the 3000-7500 range, although I'll play with anyone a couple of times, and I got some "A" strat points at my first regional recently, but still -- Gold Rush is a lot easier. I'm a really nice guy and "good partner", never get mad, screw up about once a game myself, and I like to have fun. It would also be fun to have a shot at a national title in the B or C strat for GNT or GNP. I'm in Atlanta, so would prefer someone nearby - although don't be shy, one of my high-point partners is in Canada and I will travel to play with someone I have a good time with and some chance of success, at whatever level.
