The Lindsay Individual is the club's single-session individual handicapped matchpointed pairs competition and it will be held on BBO this year at 7pm on Tuesday, 7 November. The current holder is Peter Ross.
The event will cost BBO$2 and it will be run by SBU_E_BER. We will award SBU master points for the non-handicapped result but these will not count towards the George Martin Trophy or the Betty Kelly Trophy.
REGISTRATION
Registration will open at 5pm on Tuesday, 7 November: just look for SBU_E_BER's tournament in 'All tournaments'. At least you will not need to coordinate registration with a partner for this event.
SYSTEM
This is an individual event so I have prepared a system card based on the SBU individual system (Acol, weak no trump, three weak twos). You must use this system even if you are playing with a regular partner, in order to be fair. You are permitted to consult this system card during play as it is the system card of your opponents.
Please note that robots, which will be used as subs to fill the tables, only play their own system: five-card majors, strong no trump and three weak twos. Do not try and play Acol with them!
FORMAT
We will be playing twenty one-board rounds, 8 minutes per board, matchpointed.
I hope to see a good turnout for this event as we can handle any number of players.
