Welcome to the 23rd edition of the BBO ACBL Club Bulletin.
Once in a while, I will present a few interesting hands played in our very own ACBL games, and try to show you how the hand should be bid and played.
Of course, Bridge is not an exact science, so I will try to bring more than one angle.
I hope you will find this interesting and useful.
If you come across an interesting hand you'd like to share and have analyzed, or if you have an interesting story to tell or a question to ask, feel free to email me.
My email address is ehhehh@gmail.com.
A few preliminary notes:
1. I try to keep the bidding simple. The Basic SAYC system is used, but mostly it is common sense bridge, added with a few simple gadgets.
2. Some boards will require a more scientific approach, but nothing really major. I believe good bridge can be played without 200 pages of agreements.
Hand 2:
A big tournament was held in Tel Aviv on August 1st. I attended this tournament as a player.
Unfortunately, the only thing I had to write home about was the following hand:

That's it for today.
I hope you enjoyed reading.
See you next time!
