Glad the first day went so well!
Good luck to the team for the rest of the tournament
TY for great blog, Mike. Keep up the good work. Much appreciated. On the hand you diagrammed Martel on lead vs 3NT with the East hand in the BB led the Spade Queen, but then found a losing club shift. Bob Bambrick Ottawa
Great start! 🙂
