BRIDGE (12)

Back in October, my partner and I won the opening round of the national pairs championships at our club. Today we were in the Fünen regional final, 20 pairs playing 57 hands, with the top 7 going forward to the national finals in July.

In a strong field, we finished ninth. I was pretty pleased with that. In our round robin three hands, we beat the pair that eventually won, which is always nice. And we had a number of top scores. Unfortunately, we also had a number of bottom scores, so we ended up where we should have done, in the middle.
