BBO Swiss Teams on last Tuesday in August

Wednesday, 07 August 2024 by Paul Gipson

The final online Summer Tuesday bridge on 27 August will be a Swiss Teams event with 11 two-board rounds starting at 7pm. This replaces the regular pairs event.

This event is open to all SBU members, so you can ask non-club members to play with you as long as they belong to the SBU.

You can pre-arrange a team, team up with anyone registered, or take pot luck with teammates. If you do not have teammates and there are an odd number of pairs, you may get a robot pair and you will not be eligible for master points.

An even number of teams is best, but if there is an odd number of teams then you may sit out for a round; this is because I cannot remove robot results as we do with pairs events, so will not put in a robot team.

Many of you will be familiar with the event format and how to register and team up with people, especially those who have played in the Tom Woodman. For others, this video explains how to register and team up with a pair: https://youtu.be/KOW1LPeHSjE
