Bridge Blog 535: More glory days?

The ACBL site shows the master points I earned in May as pending, all 13.66 of them – 10.63 club points and 3.03 from the Cleveland Regional. (Lifetime total: 1,285.62) Which gets me wondering – will I ever see another 20-point month again? Last ones were at the end of 2011 – October (24.01) and November (28.22), both of which involved regional tournaments.

Nevertheless, June has more promise than the first five months this year. It’s STaC month – Sectional Tournament at the Clubs – and the Airport Bridge Club is running two sessions daily all week long, 14 chances to win big points on a district level. It’s also the start of the North American Pairs qualifiers, which offer extra points, half of them red, which the Airport Club also is scheduling for maximum opportunities. So 20 isn’t far-fetched. Not at all.
