♣ Additional Masterpoints for Face to Face Games ♥ 

ACBL has just announced that effective February 27, face to face games are going to be awarded additional masterpoints if more than 18 boards are played(which we always do at Duncan Bridge Center). The increase in masterpoints is proportional to the number of boards over 18 which are played. This new enhancement does not apply to Club Championship games yet, so effective Monday Feb 27, we will run regular games and take advantage of the upgraded points. These increased masterpoint awards apply to all games --  Open and Limited (n/18 bump for limited games is now in effect). Because the increase will only be visible when the games are posted on the ACBL site, the Gitt Competitions will only use the base game points posted on this website.

Beginning Thursday February 16th at 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM

Structured Classes on Defense Techniques with Mick Riccio

A series endorsed by Eddie Cantor who suggested Mick put it in a book.

Making the best possible lead. Should it be active or passive, how do you know. Rating the table. How experts know what is in each hand.
Signalling.  Why it is so important and how to do it brilliantly. The obvious switch, what it is and when to use it. First discard.  The magic of discarding and how to read it. Continuation of defense when you gain or regain the lead. How to tell your partner what you want.

Each class fee is $20.00.

To register contact Mick at dynamick747@gmail.com or 760 668 5835
