Saturday, 07 January 2023 by Paul Gipson

Paul, with his brother Alex, has won the International Bridge Press Association's 2022 Best Bid Hand of the Year award.

Their sequence to a grand slam on the penultimate board of the SBU Winter Foursomes Final last January earned them the award. The hand was written up by Scottish Internationist and journalist Barnet Shenkin, who also receives an award.

Paul blogged about the hand earlier this year.
