At least we had a good time, Judie Bailey and I console ourselves after Friday's sessions end at the Buffalo Fall Sectional Tournament at the Bridge Center of Buffalo.
We could shrug off our less-than-stellar 44.01% in the morning session as rustiness and unfamiliarity with one another. We certainly would do better in the afternoon. But noooooo! We come in at 38.20%, dead last North-South. Only pair more miserable is the East-West combo of Rajat Basu and Sushil Amlani with 37.08%. They didn't deserve that, either. In the morning, they had been first in B.
The afternoon had such bright spots too, like Board 1, where I was the only one to bid and make a 6 Diamond contract. Doubled. For that I have to thank to Mary Terrana and Gordon Crone bidding us up there with their good Spades. At most of the other tables, North-South made the same 12 tricks, but stopped at 5 Diamonds.
