I know! Got some bad breaks in the slam but missed a trump surrogate play I should have seen. Smerriman takes the last set so good luch in the final. :) https://webutil.bridgebase.com/v2/tview.php?t=ARDCHALLENGE:4c035081.f0c4.11e9.a085.0cc47a39aeb4-1571306149&u=broze#row- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Povratnik Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Each of the semifinalists got a BB$5 gift. Well done!This is message #209 from previous tournament thread. I liked the new policy, even if nobody said it's the new policy :D B-) However, I didn't manage to find the corresponding post in this thread. Since I was absent for a certain period, maybe I should ask whether it's my blindness, or early abandonment of the policy... <_< (Not going to wine, the very participation in such luxurious tournament is worth at least BB$100. I'm just a bit curious...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not going to wine, the very participation in such luxurious tournament is worth at least BB$100. I'm just a bit curious...) It was a combination of sponsoring GIB and well done gift (upgrading GIB in challenge is 25 cents). We'll do it again :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
