Hi ladies and gentlemen ---
I would like to take this chance to report the contest as follows:
Subject: Montreal Swiss Contest
Venue: St Bruno
Time: 10:00 am thru 6:00 pm
Number of teams: 44
Round: 8 (7 per round)
Fee: 22 per person
As Eric has mentioned, FM Chen, Xi, Eric and Charlie have taken part in the event.
First 3 rounds: FM Chen and Eric sat North South.
Last 5 rounds Charlie and Xi took North South seats.
The final result: #3 in group C.
A not too bad achievement though we should have got higher score. The simple reason was some of us got unnecessary too much stress in the first couple of rounds leading to lose to comparatively weak competing teams. I guess quite a lot of us could make the same point, or even better.
Thanks to Mr. FM Chen, he has done a lot to make it happen. Another obvious benefit is both Xi and Charlie have normalized their bidding and signaling to SAYC.
Eric ---
You don't have to blame urself so much. I believe you will be doing great next time. I think each of us has space for further improvements.
Ladiea and gentlemen ---
If any next chance, please try to take part as well.
Cheers. |
