The Irish Team climbed into Division 1 of the German Bridge Trophy and held their place this morning thru
3 tough matches. Now they have won 2 of the final 3 matches and are placed 5th in the top group.
5th place is about it though as the gap is large to 4th place so unless they play and beat a leading team not much chance to improve.
However a fine performance given some of this team have been dusting off the cobwebs and they played 4 handed .
In Poker Terms they made the final table ...
................................
The Presidents Prize is in full swing in the Regent. I don't get in there much as I spend too much time directing. However it is still the premier bridge club in Ireland.
Nowadays The Regent runs improvers and beginners and all sorts of levels as well as the Premier Wednesday night game. Former junior international bridge player Declan Byrne runs a tight ship and has educated himself in all facets of computer skills and tourney directing.
..............
A strong game can still be found in
but I have not played there for quite a while.
.......
Both the above clubs are probably semi open for the summer.. June to August but I am not certain of this so ring ahead to check with number or contact on website.
....................
I am certain that Malahide Regional Bridge Club is open for all comers every night June to August.
1930 each night ..Monday to Friday ..
.......
German Bridge Teams we still await the final round start but results can be found here ..
