| Extra Masterpoints in May |
|
We will be running as many extra masterpoint games as ACBL will allow during May. This will include STaC week May 7-13 but will also feature club championships plus Junior and International Fund games. Check our calendar section for specific details. The net result is that more than two-thirds of our games will pay extra masterpoints. In addition, our Monday morning and Wednesday evening open pair games use the table count from the concurrent Newcomer games to add additional masterpoints. Card fees will be nine dollars per person ($8.50 with an account) except for StaC games which will cost an extra dollar. Come earn as many masterpoints as are allowed.

| Newcomer (0-20) and Limited (0-500) Games |
We now have two limited games for less-experienced players every week. Monday mornings at 10:30 AM and Wednesday evenings at 6:30 PM feature games that are limited to players with fewer than twenty masterpoints. Both of these games are preceded by a free lesson by Chuck Goudey, for those interested. Playing fees for these games is seven dollars.
We are also running a game at 12:30 PM on Saturdays for players with fewer than 500 masterpoints. Life Masters are also excluded from this game.
These games are a great way for newer players to ease into duplicate bridge.

| Duplicate Bridge in a Friendly Atmosphere at DHOC |
The club is owned and operated by Steve Wainz and Paul Ossip. We pledge to do our best to continue the tradition of a friendly atmosphere for enjoyable duplicate bridge. In addition, we will run all games with a non-playing director except when necessary to fill out the movement or in case of emergency (such as someone having to leave in the middle of a game).
We are no longer able to provide lunch during our morning games. Consequently, we have reduced card fees to nine dollars per game ($8.50 if you have an account with us).
We have open games Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings and Monday and Wednesday evenings plus limited games on Tuesday mornings and Saturday afternoons. We also have Newcomers games on Monday mornings and Wednesday evenings. All morning games start at 10:30 AM, afternoon games at 12:30 PM and evening games at 6:30 PM. Please feel free to offer your comments and suggestions.
