Bridge Blog 684: Cherry on the top

Five of the seven teams in the STaC (Sectional Tournament at the Clubs) Swiss team game Sunday at the Airport Bridge Clubs were assigned to the C strat, my team included. And looking at the field, I figured we were probably one of the two strongest C teams, what with our lineup of me, Selina Volpatti and Bob and Judy Kaprove.

Sure enough, although we got shut out by the winning A team – John Ziemer, Jerry Geiger, Mike Ryan and Howard Foster – we won four of the other five rounds and lost the fifth by a narrow margin. Second overall when all the dust settled, winning 3.44 silver points. Hoo-ray! Double-digit silver for the week.
