Here are the final ACBL results for the MN State Sectional in Shakopee this past weekend.
Terry Lijewski and Kory Solarz earned a most impressive 42.43 masterpoints! Just a hair behind was Paolo Ranaldi, with 42.23. Very well done!
My teammates for the Friday afternoon BAM were pretty excited about our result in that event. I must admit that I never had a game quite like that. Out of a possible 24 score, we earned 22! That's over a 91.6% game.
We couldn't have achieved perfect. I cost a half a board when I misdefended against a game, turning our minus 420 into minus 450. And, I could have passed out a hand for plus 200 against 140 at the other table. Instead, I chose to double, and partner didn't judge to leave it in. Still - I and Kerry Holloway, Joe Rice and Tim Wernz were rather amazed as we compared, and the "win's" kept on coming.
Yes Peg, a 22/24 BAM score is mind boggling. Obviously your teammates played perfect bridge, which should be an impossibility!
Congrats on the Swiss win as well!
