I was so very resolute when
2018 began. No games under 40%. That warranty lasted for about as long as a
Takata airbag. By the time the year was over, I visited the 30s some three
dozen times.
For 2019, I made no such guarantee.
Good thing I didn’t say under 30%, either. First game of the year came in at
29.58%, my first sub-30 result since 2016. It was quickly followed by a 31.60%.
That ended the visits to
the lower extremities in January. February, however, was a basement blow-out.
Four in the space of seven games mid-month, plus a lowball 30.36% last Tuesday.
Sprinkled in between were a few spikes of success – notably the 60.42% last
Monday with Bill Boardman in the ACBL Interclub game and a year-to-date peak of
65.58% a week earlier with June Feuerstein.
None of those translate
into great gobs of master points, though, since this was not a month of
constant extra-point joy at the Airport Bridge Club. Looks like the total for
February is going to be just short of 10.
