Another popular night with 33 pairs on 4 September with the top two places going to Essex pairs once again .

If you are interested in participating in this event on Wednesday 18 September, please let Marc know (marc.chawner@aol.com), so that he can send you a RealBridge event link. When you request a RealBridge event link, please let Marc know who you will be partnering. Also note that your proposed partner does not necessarily needed to have been invited (it probably just means that Marc does not have their email address).

Boot camps - Marc Chawner
Boot camps - Marc Chawner

 

Following the Boot Camp on 12 May  Marc Chawner has now produced a new guide Know your Percentages to add to; Defence, Play in a No Trump contract and Play in a Suit contract 

 

Most of the best players in Essex were set the task of playing the hands in each category -  not always successfully.

 

See if you can do better, if not with Marc's hands maybe the next time you play at the club.

 

 Download the PDFs Defence, No trumpSuit contractsKnow Your Percentages

 

They will give you everything you could ever want to know!

 

Once again the ECBA would like to express their sincere gratitude to Marc for this formidable work.
