| Mavis Drake Teams Trophy 1st October |
Congratulations to the winning team of Colin & Patrick and Angela & Richard who retained the Mavis Drake Teams Trophy by a convincing margin with a score of +63 IMPs. Runners up were Saroj & Alan and Dave & Andy, scoring +38 IMPs.
The dealing machine worked overtime to produce some fantastic deals well-suited to a teams event, a good night to sit EW.
There were plenty of slam opportunities, with the runners up bidding and making three slams on boards 2, 9 and 25, with board 9 producing the biggest swing of the night of a massive 18 IMPs. That team bid a further two slams on boards 3 and 4 which both went down on an adverse 4-1 trump break, and two other pairs found the 6NT slam on board 10. Let's not forget board 28 which was notable for a once-in-a-lifetime hand with a perfect 2-suiter shape of 6-7 in the majors, dealt to East.
