| Bridge Bulletins |
This week's Bulletin (click here) has kindly been written for us again by James Bentley, who's picked out some of the more interesting hands from Monday night's session to illustrate why those old bridge sayings can't always be relied on to get you the best result. Do enjoy reading it :)
And I hope you're also enjoying the milder weather, the first signs of spring (baby daffodils, anyone?), and the promise of a return to something like normal life some time in early summer. Let's all keep all our fingers and toes crossed!

| Online bridge at SBC |
The Club is running on-line bridge sessions on Monday evenings at 7 pm.
Before your first Summertown session you MUST include your name, email address EBU number and BBO name in the table below and click on Send Message. You will not be able to play in a Summertown event without doing this and you must do so at least 24 hours before you want to play for the first time. This gives us time to notify the director which players are authorised to play in our events. However, please note that you only need to fill this form in once.
At the start of each round please greet your opponents and give a brief resumé of your system, e.g benji, 12-14 NT, 4 card majors, standard leads, McKenney discards.
The club requires you to put your real name on your BBO profile and reserves the right to block you from playing if you persist in not having your real name visible. If you aren't willing to do this (for example, because you prefer to be anonymous when playing elsewhere on BBO), then we ask you to announce your real name (first and last name) to your opponents at the start of every round via the Chat manager.
