Every night eamongall runs the Ireland Imps Pairs. Maybe its too long at 28 boards but nobody told me
that yet. Maybe I should change to 2 times 15 board sessions and combine the 2 events for those that want the long event. Who knows as nobody tells me anything.

Amazingly back in 1990 I was part of an Intermediate A bridge team. Noel Mitchel Damian Lynch David Dunne and Eamon Galligan. We also had a subs bench which included Sean Mitchel Pat Cassidy and James Danaher and maybe even brainiac Kevin Mitchel.
I found this hand on an old computer and am amazed how much trouble it is causing some Area Masters Inter As and Inter Bs.
Make 6S ...

The folk of today don't seem to understand the mental pursuit of working the opponents hard.
Back in the day one of our team produced a set of 32 bridge boards. They were divided up between us and each player got 8. The plan was that on one Sat or Sun we would meet at a designated venue and each of us would bring 8 hands were we were meant to be the dummy. Then we would play them out under dummies direction.
Thus we actually had training sessions for our bridge team.
As intermediates we did not fear the "Masters and Seniors "
One time we won the Regional Teams out in Malahide and could not understand why we were handed Best Inter A prize and a qualification for Inter A All Ireland Final ...
Meanwhile a team of Masters from behind us went off to play in the Kelbourne Cup.
This was in a time like in the Bible BC... but for us bridge players it is BF
Before Fred ... or arguably BC before Clegg. Matthew Clegg was the okbridge founder.
Fred Gitelman developed what became Bridgebase Online

For the training hand, how about winning the Heart Ace, drawing trumps, eliminating Diamonds and playing a Heart? If it all goes well East is endplayed.
That Will work ...too easy for Danny
