Elaine Crump

We were advised that Elaine passed away at 12.30pm on Monday, 7th July.

She put up such a brave fight against her illness for many years, but had a very bad reaction to the most recent treatment itself which caused irreparable damage.

We will all miss her so much.

Undos in Bidding & Play - a reminder

Undos in Bidding
SBBC allows Undos for misclicks in the bidding, but not in the play.
As soon as you realise that you have misclicked you may ask for an Undo. 
The opponents will usually agree, in wh
ich case you may change your bid without penalty. 
If an opponent objects, or in case of doubt, the Director should be called immediately.
This brings us into agreement with most other Clubs

Please note that Undos are permitted only for genuine misclicks. 
You may not ask for an Undo if you realise that you made the wrong bid.

Undos are still not permitted for any misclicks during the play, irrespective of how these may occur

If you are worried that you might misclick inadvertently in bidding or in the play, you are reminded that you can use the "Confirm" bid or play facility within BBO by going to "Account/PLAYING/Confirm bids and/or Confirm cards"

Burnham Bridge Club also abides by the above policy

Changes to Blue and White Books
Changes to Blue and White Books

Please click here for links to important changes to the White and Blue Books. The books cover guidance and regulations governing bridge in England.

 

The Blue Book contains information that players are most likely to need. The White Book is mainly for Tournament Directors, although some players may also find the content of interest.

 

Note, in particular, the new Blue Book regulations on Alerting and Announcing.

Attending without a Partner

Players sometimes come along to face-to-face sessions without a Partner,
in the hope that someone else will be similarly placed, or that the Director will partner them.
Members may do that, but we do not guarantee a game for them.
If there is no other spare player available, the Director may play,
but strictly at their personal discretion and will not do so if it creates a half table or difficulty with the movement.
If you decide to come along without a partner you must arrive in good time and be prepared to play
with anyone else seeking a partner.

Please note that we have a partner finding service listed on our website; Please check if this lists
another player seeking a partner for the session that you are interested in.

Register Online in Good Time
