Closing Comments from Tournament Chair Linda Lord

Dear fellow Bridge Players,

2011 has been a busy year in the GTA for bridge - a National, 2 Regionals and

several Sectionals. Therefore, I'd like to thank you for coming out to the first-ever

Thornhill Regional at Le Parc.

It's been fun to see some of you reach Life Master and Bronze Life Master and even

if you didn't win gold, hopefully you enjoyed yourself while trying to.

I'd also like to thank everyone who pitched in and helped out with all kinds of jobs

that are needed to set up and run a Regional - things like the partnership desk,

registration, the bulletin, signing up restaurants etc. - Marg and Paul MacFarlane,

Greg Coles, Debbie Bennett, Bing Wong, Deanne Dennison, Paul Stanbury, Irfan

Ashran and many others.

Kind Regards,

Linda Lord

These four good looking guys (Daniel Korbel, Michael Cafferata,

Jonathan Steinberg and David Colbert won Bracket One of the

Wed./Thurs. Knockouts

European Mixed Teams Finals – Au Revoir to the Dutch

By Linda Lee – Courtesy of Masterpoint Press and www.bridgeblogging.com

The final of the mixed teams was a 45 board affair. As I watch by the time we had reached board 40 the

Zimmermann team had wrapped it up. They came into the third stanza of 15 boards with a reasonable lead 65 to

37. But still the Vriend team were in striking distance. Five boards later they might as well have been shaking

hands. Zimmermann had scored 45 unanswered imps. The onslaught started on the first board when

Zimmerman got to 3NT in the Open Room. Maybe they were helped on their way by Bertens.

Cronier Bertens D’Ovidio Verbeek

1♣ Pass 2♦

3NT all pass

In the Closed Room when Verbeek showed a weak hand, Cronier was good enough to bid diamonds at the three

level. When D’Ovidio could double the heart partscore Cronier with a source of tricks bid 3NT. I suspect that

D’Ovidio if Bertens had passed. In the Open Room where Williard as South just bid 1♥ , Bakkeren’s 3♦ bid

sounded a lot more preemptive and it was passed out. 7 imps. But it was the next board that probably ended the

Dutch hopes. In the Closed Room the auction got really out of hand for the Dutch when the French struck with a

lot of preemption. Try it out yourself sitting North. You are vulnerable against not. East D’Ovidio opens 1♣ .

Your partner Verbeek bids a natural 1♥ and West Cronier jumps all the way to 5♣ . What do you do?

Au Revoir to the Dutch – by Linda Lee - continued

Let’s think about it. How would you rate each of the following choices?

A) DBL B) Pass C) 5♥ D) 5NT E) Spade bid?

A) What does DBL mean here anyway? I don’t think it is a club stack. It should suggest high cards like aces

and kings which give you some defense as well as offense.

B) Pass. This seems a bit wimpy to me. You don’t really expect them to make 5C very often and besides that

you could easily be making lots in a major.

C) I can see the point of raising partner. You would like better hearts but partner did make a vulnerable overcall.

If partner has AKQxxx of hearts that will be enough.

D) A slam is certainly a possibility. This seems a bit pushy too me but if you take an optimistic view then you

might want to commit to slam. Is 5NT a grand slam force or suggesting two places to play the hand. I would

want to be sure of this before making this bid.

E) I don’t think the spades are good enough to bid 5♠ … too bad

What is the winner?

5♥ makes as the cards lie and is the overall prize winner. But I give an honorable mention to double. They go

for 500 into your 650. On this tricky hand Bertens chose to commit to slam with 5NT and that was, as we can

all see, not a winner. In the Open Room where East, Bakkeren chose a 3♣ preempt the French were able to stop

safely and without worries in the heart game.

Good power bridge. Félicitations to the winners.
