To make a long story short, here’s the summary:
Two sessions Friday with Florence Boyd. One of the
few pairs who struck out entirely. Morning session: 45.42%. Afternoon session:
49.46%. Interesting hands, though. See Blog 950-A on what seemed at the time
like a brilliant maneuver.
Only one session Saturday because of an obligation
to go to Rochester and visit distressed friends, but it counted. Art Matthies
and I pulled off a 59.22% game, which I thought was tops East-West until I saw
the final results. But second was good, too. 2.61 silver points. See Blog 950-B
on the sudden departure of Rita Sofia.
Uncertain arrangements for Sunday’s Swiss teams fell
apart, as I suspected they would, but I was lucky enough to pick up Rita
Sofia’s partner, Anne Watkins, and the two of us were lucky enough to team with
some very good players, Christy Kellogg and Bert Hargeshimer.
We win the first round, but according to Christy,
this is not her finest day. We needed to win four rounds to collect extra
points in the A strat, but we win only three and wind up with .90 of a silver
point. See Blog 950-C to see why this will may have been the final
Dupli-Swiss game.
