The Sixth World Youth Open Bridge Championship is currently in being held in Opatija, Croatia. And our own uber-expert, Ben Kristensen, from Duluth, is succeeding mightily with partner Kevin Rosenberg and teammates Cornelias Duffie and Sarah Youngquist.
The SIVY B team (Minnesotan Ben with Silicon Valley players) had a magnificent match today. They pounded their opponents from Poland with an impressive 133 to 44 score.
The event continues on tomorrow, Monday, starting at 3:30AM for the semi-final matches. (Later times are available for viewing if 3:30AM is not your cup of tea! Vugraph schedule is here.)
Your webmaster did watch Ben and Kevin compete today; "impressive" is an understatement!
Ben is highlighted in Monday's Bulletin. Look for the third page for a fine write up about how Ben made multiple winning decisions so that he and Kevin could extract maximum punishment from the opponents.
Ben & Sivy players, we are cheering you on in tomorrow's match! Hope that many of us can watch our young superstar in action tomorrow on Vu-graph!
