New Non-Life Master Pairs

Due to lack of interest, we are cancelling our Wednesday morning mentor game and replacing it with a non-life master pairs game.  The game will be in addition to our usual stratified open pairs and will be open to any pair where both players are non-life masters.  For the rest of October, the game will be only seven dollars and will include our lunch buffet.

Extra Masterpoints During October

During October, 19 of our games will pay extra masterpoints at no extra charge.  Featured is an Upgraded Club Championship on October 18, which will pay the most masterpoints that we are allowed to award.  In addition, we will have eight charity pair games, eight club appreciation games and two club championship games, all of which pay extra masterpoints at no additional charge.

Keep in mind that our Monday morning, Tuesday morning, Wednesday morning, Wednesday evening, Thursday morning and Friday morning open pair games use the table count from the concurrent I/N games to add additional masterpoints.  Enjoy duplicate bridge in our state-of-the-art club and earn the maximum number of masterpoints allowable.  

Card fees are twelve dollars per person ($11 with an account) for all of our morning games which include our excellent lunches, except for the Monday morning 99er and the Friday 299er games.  The Monday morning 99er, the Monday and Wednesday evening open games, the Friday morning 299'er and the Saturday afternoon games are $10 ($9.50 with an account).  The Wednesday morning mentor game and the Wednesday evening 99er game are only $7. 

 

Full Schedule of Games

We offer flighted open pair games every morning Monday through Friday plus on Saturday afternoon and on Monday and Wednesday evenings.  In addition we have the following limited games: 0 - 1500 (flighted) on Tuesday mornings, 0 -1000 (flighted) on Thursday mornings, 0 - 300 (flighted) on Friday mornings and 0 - 149 on Monday mornings and Wednesday evenings.  We have a new limited game on Wednesday mornings where at least one of the players must be below 750.  The open games will award masterpoints based on total table count when held at the same time as a limited game.   

The limited Monday morning, Thursday morning and Friday morning games are all preceded by a free lesson from Chuck Goudey.  The limited Wednesday evening game is preceded by a free lesson from Paul Ossip.

Come enjoy the fun and challenge of duplicate bridge at the appropriate level for you.

Beginning and Intermediate Bridge Lessons

Paul Ossip will begin a five-week course on Getting Ready for Duplicate on October 18.  The classes will be given on five consecutive Tuesday evenings, and the cost will be fifty dollars per person for the series.  The course is designed for people who would like to learn more about bidding techniques, play and defense methods and strategies used by duplicate players.  The information will be useful to all bridge players who would like to improve their game.  For further information, e-mail us at denverhouseofcards@gmail.com or at paulossip@hotmail.com or call us at 303-781-6552.

In addition, Curt Soloff will be teaching a four-week series on Power Auctions on Thursday afternoons at 2:30 beginning October 20.  This will cover dealing with strong hands and is geared to intermediate players.  Sign up at House of Cards or contact Curt at 913-221-7245 or curtsolo@alumni.upenn.edu.
