I drove through a bit of rain last night to play this weekend at the city's annual regional. Reports to follow. --Bob

Thanks. Ended up playing the Compact but lost our first match. Got off to a good start in the Swiss but faded dramatically to finish below average.

Don't know whether we're playing teams today or Fast Pairs. Depends on whether we get hooked up with a good pair. --Bob

We played the Fast Pairs yesterday and backed up our 59% morning session with a 58% afternoon session, good for second in the event. I am now a Sapphire Life Master. --Bob
