I'm playing my local regional in Woodland Hills this weekend. One of my cases recently settled so I took the day off Tuesday to play. I was pleased with the results -- we crushed our competition in the Open Pairs event by nearly half a matchpoint. (For those not in the know, this is tongue-in-cheek. Half a matchpoint is about as small a margin as possible.)
I'm playing the Compact Knockout today and the Swiss tomorrow. Wish me luck! --Bob

Thanks for the explanation. A win's a win, right? (But not when it comes to figuring out that point system, I guess.)Bob78164 wrote:(For those not in the know, this is tongue-in-cheek. Half a matchpoint is about as small a margin as possible.)

Re: Bridge report
Our local newspaper printed a bridge report yesterday.
