County Pairs Final

Congratulations to Stephen and Michael who won the County Pairs final on 17th March.  Other Huntingdon pairs who did well in this event were Eddie & Malcolm who finished 5th (out of 23) and Scott & Bill 10th.

9 High Duplicate pairs

Also successful in a county event were Lynn and Dennis who won the 9 High event back in October.  Unless their results deteriorate in the near future they won't be eligible for this again.  Perhaps they can demonstrate their skills in a Jack high event soon!

News

The first Education Session was held on Friday 14th June.   Michael gave a presentation on suit distributions and how to cope with unfavourable splits.   This was followed by some practice hands where players could put the lessons to use.  “Experts” were there to supervise the practice and nudge people into making the right decisions.   There was time at the end to play a few random hands.  Feedback from the participants was very positive.  Watch out for the next session!

The winners of the 2023-24 Competitions are now in the Hall of Fame
