On Monday Afternoon five tables played a two winner Mitchell movement. John Crompton & Val Richards topped the North / South side with 73.33 and Carlyn Miller & Sheila Mann led East / West with 53.33.

Monday Evening saw eleven pairs playing a Howell movement to produce a single winner in this blue pointed Founders Championship Pairs Event. Jim Bainbridge & Smita Basu came first with 63.54 followed by Max Kynoch and Malcolm Melrose with 58.33 and Michael Ward & Don Prowse with 54.76.

This result takes Malcom & Max into the lead of the Founders, but only just ahead of Brian Mawby & David Reed, with only two events to go!

On Tuesday Afternoon of last week Jim Bainbridge & Lo Tolbutt led the North / South side of a ten table two winner Mitchel movement with 65.18. Brian Jacks & Don Prowse took second with 61.01. Gerald & Pat Newth led the East / West side with 60.12 followed by David & Marilyn North with 56.85.

On Thursday Evening, six full tables played a single winner movement. Graham Clarke & Felicity White took the top spot with 62.92 followed by Janet O’Connor & Don Prowse with 60.00.

Our very full Autumn programme with three courses of lessons and two coaching / supervised play sessions continues until the end of November.

The main theme is auctions that open with a bid at the two level or above.

  • First lesson is a stand-alone session on opening and responding to pre-emptive hands at the three, or four, level.
  • Two linked lessons follow: one on opening weak twos; and the second on opening stronger hands having given up the strong two opening. This is Benjaminised ACOL (“Benji”)
  • There are then three sessions themed around finding and bidding slams.
  • The “Is game on?” session focuses on techniques to determine whether you and partner have a game contract or not. This question is always at the heart of any duplicate competition!
  • Our quirky “1NT The Chameleon” is a tour of the use of the 1NT bid in many situations. It’s an excellent test and completion of bidding techniques.
  • We then look at the Multi 2D Opening, why?
  • Finally we look at some alternative bidding systems you may encounter and how to deal with them.

This is a ten week course. There is a break in the half term week. Much of the time is spent playing pre-set hands. There are colour notes to take away. The course is for players who have taken our Bridge 3 course, or have some duplicate experience.
