Ohakune Bridge
When a slam is bid and> made the bidder can feel immensely satisfied and elated, especially if noone else bids that hand to slam. However this elation can be short-lived when another pair sitting in the opposite direction call to game, redoubled and vulnerable and go four light meaning their opponents take top
points and your slam-bid is relegated to second place. This happened on Wednesday night when twenty people played twenty-five boards and commiserations to Tracy Ennis and Les Burns. Top Place North-South went to Ron Martin and Heather Cranston who scored 63% of a maxL mum 200 points.
Six points behind with 60% were Colin and Bev Cox. Rita Kaiwhare and Betty Hammond scored 61% to take first place in the East-West direction and 8 points behind in second place were Pauline Le Noel and Mark Hays with 57%.
