2010 World Bridge Series Championship
Am in Philly for some fun and games. The 13th World Bridge Series Championship that runs from 1st to 16th October is under way at the Marriott Hotel downtown on Market street.
The opening ceremony this evening as usual was filled with boring speeches, good entertainment-band and great food-Salad, Pasta bar with famous Philly steaks, also a open bar.
It was also a great place to renew old friendships and make new ones. Met up with Mojo and his delightful partner amount others.
Next up for me is The World Mixed Pair which at press time has 433 pairs entered from 49 countries. There will be three qualifying sessions at the end of which 156 pairs would qualify for the three-session final.
Game time is at a reasonable 11am and 4pm for the first day then 10am on the second. Everybody will play duplicated boards and with screen. Scoring is done by Bridgemates.
Looking forward to a fun event
Good luck in the Mixed. Will be joining you on Wednesday. Look
forward to meeting you.
