Volunteers Needed for<br />

‘Learn <strong>Bridge</strong> In a DAY?’<br />

Patty Tucker, with Whirlwind <strong>Bridge</strong>, will host<br />

a Learn <strong>Bridge</strong> In a DAY? event on Sunday, Aug. 4<br />

from 1 to 6 p.m. This event is for individuals with no<br />

bridge experience or those who have played social<br />

bridge and are interested in learning more about<br />

duplicate.<br />

The event requires a coach at every table to help<br />

participants follow the lesson. We’re looking for<br />

volunteers to be table coaches. ACBL members who<br />

have earned even 5 masterpoints will enjoy coaching.<br />

A large attendance is expected, so the more table<br />

coaches available, the better.<br />

This is a great opportunity for local club<br />

managers and teachers to network with some of their<br />

future members.<br />

Patty Tucker and Melissa Bernhardt will lead<br />

Learn <strong>Bridge</strong> in a DAY?<br />

Glandorf is ABTA Teacher of the Year<br />

By Joyce Penn<br />

The thrust of the ABTA’s annual Teacher of the<br />

Year Award is to recognize very special teachers.<br />

Dave<br />

Glandorf’s<br />

students rave<br />

about his<br />

enthusiasm,<br />

his<br />

dedication<br />

and his<br />

ability to<br />

interact with<br />

students<br />

with humor<br />

and respect.<br />

No student<br />

of Dave’s<br />

ABTA Teacher of the Year Dave<br />

Glandorf with Joyce Penn,<br />

chairman of the ABTA Teacher of<br />

the Year Award committee.<br />

has ever felt<br />

foolish. He is<br />

an extremely<br />

popular<br />

teacher in the<br />

Houston area, with superb teaching skills.<br />

Dave has written two (as yet unpublished)<br />

student books. The first deals with fundamental<br />

concepts of card play by declarer and defender.<br />

There’s just enough information included on bidding<br />

and hand evaluation to help his students understand<br />

the basics. Dave’s students understand the basics<br />

without getting tangled up in the complexity of<br />

auctions for awhile.<br />

His second book, “Yes, No, Maybe,” picks up<br />

where the first leaves off, introducing the student to<br />

bidding basics. Dave finds his approach is beneficial<br />

for newcomers, as well as players with some<br />

experience who wish to improve their playing skills<br />

as they learn bidding.<br />

Comments from his students include the<br />

<strong>Bridge</strong> Documentary<br />

The trailer for a soon-to-be released documentary<br />

about bridge will be presented during the Youth<br />

NABC closing ceremony on Saturday, Aug. 3, from<br />

7:30 to 9 p.m. The four-and-a-half-minute trailer will<br />

be shown in the Embassy Hall in the International<br />

Tower on LL1.<br />

Semifinalists battle in<br />

GNT action today<br />

In the Morehead Championship Flight of the Grand National Teams, the<br />

squads captained by Warren Spector (District 9: Florida) and Larry Sealy<br />

(District 10: Mid-South) will face off. In Friday’s quarterfinal, Spector defeated<br />

the District 7 team led by Ron Smith 179-121, while Sealy easily dispatched<br />

William Higgins’s District 11 team 146-62.<br />

In the other Championship bracket, Robert Lebi’s District 2 team (Ontario)<br />

will play Jared Lilienstein’s District 24 (New York) team. Lebi beat Will Engel’s<br />

District 8 squad 120-43 in the yesterday’s match. Lilienstein advanced by coming<br />

from behind in the last quarter to defeat the District 23 team led by Mitch Dunitz.<br />

In the Goldman Flight A GNT, Shan Huang and company (District 2) will<br />

face Anthony Bianchi’s squad (District 16). The other bracket: Shoichi Yoshihiro<br />

(District 22) vs. Edward Piken (District 23).<br />

The Sheinwold Flight B semifinalists are Grant Petersen from District 12<br />

vs. Eugene Hung of District 21, and Dustin Stout (District 22) vs. Joseph Keim<br />

(District 11).<br />

In the MacNab Flight C, the matchups are Frederick Upton (District 23) vs.<br />

Matthew Rudary (District 24), and Yu Chang (District 21) vs. Huei Rong Chern<br />

of District 5.<br />

following:<br />

“I cannot rave enough about Dave’s teaching<br />

ability. As a retired school administrator, I<br />

recognize an excellent teacher when I see one and<br />

wholeheartedly endorse Dave as this year’s Teacher<br />

of the Year.”<br />

“Dave is able to structure information into<br />

segments that build logically to the next level of<br />

‘need to know’ information. He clearly enjoys his<br />

classes and his students, and he loves bridge, making<br />

the atmosphere contagious.”<br />

“Dave is very patient, never frustrated, and is<br />

willing to stay after class ends if people need extra<br />

help. He encourages students to get to know each<br />

other by having several tell about themselves at the<br />

beginning of each class session. This sets the tone for<br />

relaxed, friendly banter among participants.”<br />

Dave’s been known to demonstrate the “Hold<br />

Up Play” dressed as a cowboy with guns, a bandana<br />

and a hat. He uses skits, sound and action stories<br />

to sustain class interest, appealing to students with<br />

many learning styles. When he teaches his students<br />

about opening hands that contain two five-card suits,<br />

he tells them to open the higher-ranking suit first. The<br />

students all do high-fives to help them remember this<br />

concept.<br />

Glandorf has been teaching for 10 years, and<br />

he also chairs bridge education at his club and is<br />

an active mentor and a frequent speaker at area<br />

tournaments. He spearheaded the establishment of<br />

games for newer duplicate players at his club. He<br />

was his unit’s first recipient of the annual ACBL Unit<br />

Goodwill Award.<br />

Sponsored by Master Point Press, the ABTA<br />

Teacher of the Year committee is composed of ABTA<br />

teachers, nationwide: Larry Cohen, Nancy Abbott,<br />

Linda Lee, Sandy Stevens, Tina Radding, Brenda<br />

Simpson and Chuck Hodel.<br />

Each player must have an ACBL convention<br />

card filled out and on the table. Please note that<br />

other types of convention cards, such as the WBF<br />

convention card or homemade cards that do not<br />

sufficiently resemble the ACBL convention card, are<br />

not acceptable substitutes.<br />

JUST FOR NEW PLAYERS<br />

Have you discussed?<br />

By Brent Manley<br />

This set of Daily Bulletin articles focuses on an<br />

area of bridge play that is often overlooked – the<br />

nuances of the various conventions you play. You<br />

will see that it’s not enough to mark Stayman on<br />

your convention card. As you will see in this series,<br />

there’s a lot more<br />

to it than that.<br />

As with<br />

previous Daily<br />

Bulletins, each<br />

article will start<br />

with an anecdote.<br />

Some might not<br />

be relevant to the<br />

topic of the day, but<br />

they should at least<br />

amuse.<br />

The late Harold<br />

Levitt had the kind of wit that usually hit the nail<br />

on the head. Here is one of his astute observations:<br />

“Playing bridge without a system is like winking at<br />

a girl in the dark. You know what you’re doing, but<br />

nobody else does.”<br />

If you and your partner fail to discuss your<br />

agreements thoroughly, you may find yourself<br />

winking in the dark.<br />

For example, you may have decided to play a<br />

certain defense against the opponents’ 1NT openers.<br />

In the U.S., Marty Bergen’s DONT has many<br />

followers in part because of its simplicity. DONT<br />

is one of many schemes for competing against 1NT<br />

openers.<br />

But what if the opponents are playing a “weak”<br />

1NT? Do you use the same system? Many experts<br />

vary the system to be able to double directly to<br />

show a good hand (usually 14 or more high-card<br />

points).<br />

Alert! Important point ahead!<br />

Before you start thinking about an alternative<br />

system for “weak” 1NT openers, you and partner<br />

must define “weak.” I have seen many experienced<br />

players using their weak 1NT takeout system when<br />

partner considered the opener to have been in the<br />

“strong” category.<br />

Agree on the definition before you adopt a<br />

second system to compete against it. A range such<br />

as 10-12 is easy to define as weak, but what about<br />

11-14? 13-15? What’s best for competing is less<br />

important than agreement between you and your<br />

partner about the range for strong and for weak.<br />

Another important topic for discussion is<br />

continuations by advancer (the partner of the<br />

overcaller). What if advancer has a good hand?<br />

Many <strong>pair</strong>s play that all good hands (i.e., worth<br />

opening bid) start with 2NT. This will come up<br />

more against the weaker 1NT openers but it’s handy<br />

to have in your<br />

arsenal for all<br />

occasions. It’s<br />

frustrating to<br />

miss a game<br />

because of the<br />

opponents’<br />

system.<br />

It would<br />

also be helpful<br />

to discuss the<br />

kinds of hands<br />

you will have<br />

when you enter<br />

the auction.<br />

The Rule of<br />

8, a guideline<br />

created by Mel<br />

Colchamiro<br />

of New York,<br />

can help.<br />

When deciding<br />

whether to enter<br />

the auction over<br />

a strong 1NT<br />

opener, take<br />

the number of<br />

cards in your<br />

two long suits<br />

and subtract the<br />

total number of<br />

losers in your<br />

hand (one loser<br />

for each missing<br />

ace, king and<br />

queen in a suit<br />

of three cards<br />

or longer; low<br />

doubletons<br />

have two losers,<br />

singletons<br />

one, voids<br />

none). If the<br />

answer is zero<br />

or one, pass.<br />

If the answer<br />

is 2 or higher,<br />

get in there. It<br />

becomes the<br />

Rule of 8 with the stipulation that the overcaller<br />

must have at least 6 high-card points to get<br />

involved.<br />

While you are discussing competing against<br />

strong openings, decide on a defense to the artificial<br />

Precision 1♣ opening (or any strong 1♣). There are<br />

many gadgets for this task, but simple is best, at<br />

least at the start. The easiest to work with is Mathe:<br />

Double shows the majors, 1NT shows the minors.<br />

Other bids are natural.<br />

Opening lead: ♥10.<br />

Lead commentary: With two equal-length<br />

suits, both majors, the suit with the sequence is the<br />

preferred lead.<br />

Defensive commentary: East wins the ♥A and<br />

returns the ♥4, original fourth best. It is now clear<br />

(or should be) to East-West that hearts are ready to<br />

run – if they can just get in!<br />

Play commentary: As South, you start with<br />

eight sure tricks: four spades, one heart, two<br />

diamonds and one club. Two finesses are available<br />

for extra trick(s), one in a suit missing a queen<br />

(diamonds), the other in a suit missing a king<br />

(clubs). Which finesse to take?<br />

The one that works! Kidding. When two finesses<br />

are available, one suit missing a queen, the other a<br />

king, play the ace and king in the suit missing the<br />

queen. If the queen does not drop, hope that the<br />

king in the other suit is onside for a finesse. It’s like<br />

having the best of both worlds.<br />

Continuing with the thought, you can use<br />

the same defense against the strong 2♣ opener,<br />

but there is more risk involved because you have<br />

to start a level higher. The system chosen is less<br />

important than both partners’ being on the same<br />

page.<br />

Bit by the bridge bug<br />

The 299er Swiss Teams drew 10 tables in the<br />

afternoon. Among those playing were Clay and<br />

Elizabeth Long of Atlanta GA. The Longs played<br />

<strong>pair</strong>s Friday morning and planned to play in the<br />

evening 299er Swiss Teams. They’re making the<br />

most of their first time at an NABC.

Pitching a shutout (nearly)<br />

By Barry Rigal<br />

Talk about a game of two halves: When the<br />

Lilienstein team from District 24 (New York) took on<br />

Gillespie from District 25 (New England), the score<br />

was 86-65 to the latter at the half. In the second half,<br />

the New York team (last year’s losing finalist) held<br />

their opponents to one overtrick IMP in each quarter<br />

and won handily.<br />

This was a flat board, however:<br />

♠ A 5 2<br />

♥ A 8 3<br />

♦ —<br />

♣ A K 7 6 5 4 2<br />

♠ Q 10 6 4<br />

♥ K Q 10 7 6 4<br />

♦ A 5 3<br />

♣ —<br />

You reach 7♥, and the opponents meanly lead a<br />

spade. Plan the play. The answer follows, so don’t<br />

peek until you’ve decided.<br />

Answer: Unless you fancy taking a spade finesse<br />

at trick one (I don’t), win the ♠A. Now you need to<br />

take advantage of both club and heart breaks — not<br />

easy!<br />

The best you can do is cash the ♣A K and lead a<br />

low club. If your right-hand opponent shows out, ruff<br />

low (or overruff) and play for 2-2 hearts: ♥K, ♥A,<br />

and ruff out LHO’s high club.<br />

If RHO follows to the third round of clubs, ruff<br />

with the ♥10. If clubs split 3-3, you play the ♥K Q<br />

and a heart to the ace. If your ♥10 holds and LHO<br />

shows out, you need 2-2 trumps, so play the ♥K, a<br />

heart to the ace and cross your fingers.<br />

Slow Play<br />

Slow play, as opposed to careful or thoughtful<br />

play, is discourteous to your opponents, and to all<br />

other competitors as well. Players and <strong>pair</strong>s who take<br />

more than their allotted time are subject to penalty.<br />

In general, <strong>pair</strong>s who are rarely late will be<br />

warned while <strong>pair</strong>s who are habitually tardy and/or<br />

pay no attention to time limits will be penalized.<br />

Oh, That Was Easy!<br />

One of the most interesting play/defend problems<br />

from the Friday morning session confronted my<br />

Declarer then <strong>leads</strong> a winning diamond, ruffed by<br />

North and overruffed. If South discards, declarer will<br />

ruff a club in dummy, so South must overruff and<br />

cash a heart. If he exits a trump to stop the crossruff,<br />

declarer overtakes the ♠J with the queen, draws<br />

trump and gives up a club. Ta-daa!<br />

At sixes and sevens<br />

By Frank Stewart<br />

For many players, the contemporary approach<br />

to competitive auctions is “bid when it’s your turn.”<br />

Players who embrace that style may gently question<br />

the decisions by East in this deal.<br />

In the GNT Championship Flight, the Alabama-<br />

Tennessee team representing District 10 (Jim Foster,<br />

Allen Hawkins, Jim Munday, Larry Sealy) qualified<br />

for the knockout stage, then romped to a round-of-16<br />

win over District 16 (Texas) on Thursday. Romps<br />

are not difficult if you achieve a few double game<br />

swings.<br />

5♣ Dbl All Pass<br />

When North for Texas doubled West’s 2♥<br />

opening, East’s redouble said “I have my own<br />

suit.” South leaped to 4♠, but after two passes East<br />

refused to sell and tried 4NT, “unusual.” West duly<br />

took out to 5♣. North, looking at two aces opposite<br />

a partner who had jumped to game, hammered that<br />

— and found to his chagrin that 6♣ was unbeatable.<br />

Tennessee-Alabama scored plus 650.<br />

At the other table, East apparently didn’t think he<br />

had enough shape to act.<br />

West North East South<br />

2♥ Pass Pass 2♠<br />

Pass Pass Pass(!)<br />

West led the ♥2, and Foster, the declarer for<br />

District 10, played low from dummy. He must<br />

have been stunned when East discarded a diamond.<br />

Foster won cheaply and cashed the ace of trumps.<br />

East showed out as expected, but Foster saw a way<br />

home. He led a club to dummy’s 9, and East won and<br />

returned a low diamond to the queen and ace. Foster<br />

ruffed a club and led a heart: king, ace. He ruffed<br />

dummy’s last club and led another heart.<br />

West took his king and exited with a heart,<br />

postponing the evil moment, but Foster had a<br />

complete count. He took the king of trumps and led a<br />

third trump, and West, who was marked with 3-6-1-3<br />

distribution, had to concede a ruff-and-discard and<br />

the contract.<br />

Making four, plus 420 and 14 IMPs to the<br />

District 10 squad.<br />

Monitoring<br />

At this and future North <strong>American</strong><br />

Championships, ACBL will be monitoring NABC+<br />

events with visible, real-time cameras. The images<br />

will be recorded and will be available for later official<br />

inspection and review.<br />

By general monitoring of the session and<br />

participants’ behavior, ACBL has another source of<br />

information that may be useful in determining facts<br />

and settling issues arising from some types of ethical<br />

and behavioral complaints or actions. Please summon<br />

a director if a problem occurs at the table.<br />

This procedure is intended to assure everyone<br />

that the playing field is level and that misbehavior<br />

will not be tolerated.<br />

Slow Play<br />

Slow play, as opposed to careful or thoughtful<br />

play, is discourteous to your opponents -- and to all<br />

other competitors as well. Players and <strong>pair</strong>s who take<br />

more than their allotted time are subject to penalty.<br />

In general, <strong>pair</strong>s who are rarely late will be<br />

warned while <strong>pair</strong>s who are habitually tardy and/or<br />

pay no attention to time limits will be penalized.

Convention card reminder<br />

Each player is required to have a convention card filled out legibly and on the table throughout a session.<br />

Both cards of a partnership must be identical and include the first and last names of each member of the<br />

partnership.<br />

If a director determines that neither player has a substantially completed card, the partnership may play<br />

only the Standard <strong>American</strong> Yellow Card and may use only standard carding. This restriction may be lifted<br />

only at the beginning of a subsequent round after convention cards have been properly prepared and approved<br />

by the director. Further, the partnership will receive a 1/6-board matchpoint penalty for each board played,<br />

commencing with the next round and continuing until the restriction is lifted. In IMP team games, penalties<br />

shall be at the discretion of the director.<br />

If the director determines the partnership has at least one substantially completed convention card but has<br />

not fully complied with ACBL regulations, the director may give warnings or assign such penalties as he deems<br />

to be appropriate under the circumstances.<br />

The objective of these warnings and penalties is the encouragement of full compliance with ACBL<br />

regulations.<br />

Insider<br />

As the NABC gets cranked up, the YNABC<br />

winds down today. The kids have been playing some<br />

pretty good bridge as many of them warm up for the<br />

start of the World Youth Open <strong>Bridge</strong> Championships<br />

tomorrow. The Insider remembers one recent NABC<br />

where players from 42 different countries played at<br />

least one session of bridge. It looks like the Atlanta<br />

NABC may have even more. If he remembers to<br />

check with Director-in-Charge Weinstein later in the<br />

week, the Insider will update progress towards the<br />

new record.<br />

As regular readers may recall, the Insider has<br />

exposed many of the dirty little facts that many of<br />

the ACBL staff would rather keep secret, such as<br />

the head director playing Hide the Side Game. At<br />

this tournament, the NABC planners have taken that<br />

game up another notch or two by playing hide the<br />

Bulletin Office. At most NABCs, at least 37 people<br />

come into the Bulletin Office during the six hours it<br />

takes the Insider to create these literary masterpieces.<br />

Today? One! And he was just trying to find the bridge<br />

buck sellers. The Bulletin team did hit the send<br />

button to move the Bulletin electrons over to the<br />

Gutenberg Printing Company at around midnight – a<br />

full three hours earlier than usual.

Support the ACBL<br />

Educational Foundation<br />

The ACBL Educational Foundation supports<br />

activities for the purpose of instructing bridge, to<br />

increase the enjoyment of playing and the number<br />

of players. The Foundation has nine members: three<br />

from the Board of Directors and six from the general<br />

bridge membership. Members are elected for threeyear<br />

terms, with a two-term limit. The Foundation<br />

meets three times a year at each NABC to consider<br />

all grant applications.<br />

The Educational Foundation is funded by<br />

voluntary contributions made when members join<br />

or renew their ACBL membership, through special<br />

games and events, and from individual donations.<br />

Donations are tax deductible.<br />

During the past few years, the Educational<br />

Foundation has approved applications for a variety<br />

of bridge programs across the U.S. and Canada,<br />

including:<br />

After-school bridge clubs<br />

In-school bridge programs<br />

Summer Youth bridge camps<br />

<strong>American</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> Teacher Association<br />

Conference<br />

Online Course Module for teaching bridge to<br />

school teachers<br />

<strong>Bridge</strong> Lesson programs to develop new players<br />

North <strong>American</strong> Collegiate <strong>Bridge</strong> Team<br />

Championships<br />

The Educational Foundation encourages ACBL<br />

members who want to start a bridge program to<br />

consider applying for a grant for financial support.<br />

The application form is on the ACBL web site<br />

at www.acbl.org (select the “Foundations and<br />

Tournament<br />

Terminology 101<br />

If you’re confused by the terms used to describe<br />

the different types of bridge events played at clubs<br />

and tournaments, you’re not alone. Here’s a list of<br />

common bridge events with explanations.<br />

Knockout Teams: an event in which a team (of<br />

four, five or six players, with four playing at a time)<br />

plays another team. The losers are eliminated or<br />

“knocked out” while the winners play other winners<br />

until only one winning team remains.<br />

The length of a KO match may vary from a<br />

single session to a full day (the Vanderbilt and<br />

Spingold) to a multi-day event (the Bermuda Bowl).<br />

Bracketed Knockout Teams: a KO event in<br />

which teams are divided into groups (usually of 8, 16<br />

or 32 teams) based on their masterpoint holdings. The<br />

top group (Bracket I) and all other groups compete in<br />

a separate event with their own set of winners.<br />

Compact Knockout Teams: a shorter version of<br />

Bracketed KO teams.<br />

Swiss Teams: an event in which a team (of four,<br />

five or six players, with four playing at a time) plays<br />

other teams in seven-, eight- or nine-board matches.<br />

Team A sits North-South at Table 1 and East-West at<br />

Table 2 while Team B sits East-West at Table 1 and<br />

North-South at Table 2. The results are compared and<br />

scored by International Match Points (IMPs).<br />

Pairings for the first round are random. Pairings<br />

for succeeding rounds are determined by a team’s<br />

win-loss record or Victory Point total.<br />

International Match Points (IMPs): the most<br />

common method of scoring Swiss Team matches.<br />

Scoring example: if Team A scores plus 620 for<br />

bidding and making 4♠ on a particular deal and Team<br />

B scores only plus 170 (they didn’t bid the game),<br />

the difference is 450, which converts to 10 IMPs. The<br />

IMP chart is shown on the inside of your convention<br />

card.<br />

Victory Points (VPs): a method of scoring<br />

Swiss Team matches. After the scores are compared<br />

and converted to IMPs, the IMP total is converted<br />

to Victory Points. A team’s VP total may be used to<br />

determine its next opponents and its final standing.<br />

Side Game Series: a series of single-session <strong>pair</strong><br />

games that pay red points. These series include at<br />

least three sessions and may have as many as six. You<br />

may play in as many sessions as you like, but only<br />

<strong>pair</strong>s who play in at least two sessions are eligible for<br />

overall gold points. Your best two sessions are used<br />

for determining overall winners.<br />

Flighted <strong>pair</strong>s: When flighting is used, the<br />

field is divided by expertise or experience or both<br />

into several separate games. Flight A ( “unlimited<br />

masterpoints”) will be open to all players while the<br />

remaining flights will be limited. Flight B might be<br />

0-500 MPs or 0-1000 MPs while Flight C might be<br />

0-300 or 0-500.<br />

Each flight is scored individually, and<br />

masterpoint awards are made for each flight.<br />

The masterpoint holdings of the players<br />

determine their flight. If one player is quite expert<br />

while his partner is new to the game, the <strong>pair</strong> must<br />

compete in Flight A.<br />

In flighted events, you may play up but not down.<br />

That means you may play in Flight A or Flight B<br />

even if your masterpoint holding qualifies you for<br />

Flight C. Conversely, you may not play in Flight B or<br />

Flight C if you are a Flight A player.<br />

Stratified Pairs: The idea is to compete against<br />

everyone but to be ranked only with your peers.<br />

Each <strong>pair</strong> is assigned a stratum or “strat” based<br />

on the masterpoint holding of the partner with more<br />

masterpoints.<br />

Example: A = 1000+ masterpoints; B = 300-<br />

1000; C = 0-300.<br />

Thus, the most experienced players are placed<br />

in Strat A, intermediate players in Strat B and less<br />

experienced players in Strat C. Masterpoints are<br />

awarded for placings in all strats but gold points are<br />

awarded only in A and B.<br />

The game proceeds normally. The difference<br />

comes when the scores are tabulated and ranked.<br />

In a three-strat game, the scores are ranked three<br />

times. The first ranking is done as in a regular open<br />

game. These are the Strat A results.<br />

If a B or C <strong>pair</strong> does well in this ranking, they<br />

receive full credit for that performance. It is not<br />

all that uncommon for a Strat C <strong>pair</strong> to place first<br />

overall, and they receive the full masterpoint award<br />

for that game.<br />

Note: A <strong>pair</strong> is eligible for only one set of<br />

masterpoint awards and automatically receives the<br />

highest award.<br />

The second ranking compares the scores of only<br />

the B and C <strong>pair</strong>s. The scores of the Strat A <strong>pair</strong>s are<br />

eliminated. Once again, if a C <strong>pair</strong> does well, they<br />

receive points for their finishing position in the Strat<br />

B results.<br />

The third and final ranking compares the scores<br />

of only the C <strong>pair</strong>s. All the scores of the Strat A and B<br />

<strong>pair</strong>s are eliminated.<br />

Electronic Device Policy<br />

The electronic device policy at NABCs has been<br />

revised to allow players to bring electronic devices<br />

such as cell phones into the playing area provided<br />

that such devices are turned off.<br />

Further, any such equipment must not be visible<br />

during the session.<br />

The policy applies to all <strong>pair</strong>s, team members,<br />

captains, coaches, kibitzers and play recorders,<br />

except those designated by the ACBL and are in force<br />

throughout any actual playing session or segment of<br />

play.<br />

A violation of the policy will result in an<br />

automatic disciplinary penalty of one full board (or<br />

12 IMPs at that form of scoring) for the first offense.<br />

A second offense will result in disqualification from<br />

the event for the <strong>pair</strong>/team. Kibitzers violating this<br />

policy will be removed from the playing area for the<br />

remainder of the session.


District 9 sent a huge contingent of players to the Youth NABC – 32 in all.<br />

Most of them are in the photo.<br />

District 9 steps up<br />

to the plate<br />

The 2013 Youth NABC in Atlanta has attracted players from all over North<br />

America. Thanks to Atlanta Junior <strong>Bridge</strong>, there is a huge contingent here from<br />

the metropolitan area to lead the way in numbers of players.<br />

An easy second would have to be District 9 – Florida.<br />

More than 30 players from the district showed up in Atlanta to see their<br />

friends and vie for matchpoints and IMPs.<br />

Nancy Hagerty, the district’s youth education representative, notes that any<br />

player who filled out the proper paperwork and plays four of the six sessions at<br />

the Youth NABC is entitled to a $500 scholarship.<br />

Hagerty says the money for the scholarships comes from a foundation<br />

established by the district. There are many generous sponsors, she says: “We<br />

have received gifts from various sources.”<br />

Most of the young players, Hagerty adds, are from Bear Lake Elementary<br />

School in Apopka, near Orlando. She says most of the young recruits to bridge<br />

can be credited to Jill Lundberg, who teaches gifted students at Bear Lake.<br />

China again represented<br />

at the Youth NABC<br />

Last year in Philadelphia, more than 30 players from China showed up to<br />

compete in the 5th Youth NABC. Despite the added attraction of the World Youth<br />

Open <strong>Bridge</strong> Championships, which starts on Sunday at the Hyatt, the Chinese<br />

contingent is smaller. Smaller, however, does not mean less enthusiastic.<br />

Five of the players come from Dalian, a seaport city of about 6 million<br />

people. The players attend the Dalian Gelin Primary School, where bridge has<br />

been taught for three years in a government-supported program.<br />

The school principle, Chen Hongwei, accompanied the young players to<br />

Atlanta. With her daughter, Liu Xiaohe, interpreting, Chen says she heartily<br />

endorses bridge and all its benefits for the young players.<br />

“<strong>Bridge</strong> is the best mind game in the world,” she says. “It helps the students<br />

learn to communicate and, most important, to be responsible for themselves.”<br />

On Friday, the<br />

District 9 players<br />

were sporting<br />

yellow shirts with<br />

the FJB (Florida<br />

Junior <strong>Bridge</strong>)<br />

logo on the front.<br />

They have shirts<br />

in other colors.<br />

players have done<br />

well, with Asya<br />

Nancy Hagerty.<br />

Pairs.<br />

Hagerty and her husband, Paul, live in Oviedo,<br />

also nearly Orlando. She is a retired guidance<br />

counselor. Paul was Seminole County school<br />

superintendent for 12 years.<br />

She has coordinated all the Youth NABC activity<br />

for the district and finds<br />

the job very rewarding.<br />

“It’s so much fun,”<br />

she says, “and the parents<br />

have been wonderful.”<br />

Chinese players<br />

Jack Chang with daughter Sophia Chang.<br />

Chen said the school has about 80 students taking<br />

bridge lessons, taught by a coach hired from the local<br />

bridge club. “The students need to learn more,” she<br />

says.<br />

As for the decision to make the long trip from<br />

China to Atlanta, Chen says, “There is an old Chinese<br />

saying: ‘It is more important to travel than to read a<br />

lot.’”<br />

Greeting Chen and two of her associates was<br />

Jack Chang, who is in Atlanta with his daughter,<br />

Sophia, a competitor in the Youth NABC. Change<br />

lives in Los Angeles and work in information<br />

technology at the City of Hope Cancer Center.<br />

A bridge player for 40 years, the native of Taiwan<br />

arrived in the U.S. 26 years ago. When his daughter<br />

and son, Nolan, were old enough, he started teaching<br />

them card games, eventually moving to bridge and<br />

bridge clubs. Nolan, Chang says, has done well in<br />

regional tournaments in Southern California.<br />

Chang says he endorses bridge because it teaches<br />

young players logic and social skills and provides the<br />

opportunity to make new friends. “It’s a game you<br />

can play for a lifetime,” he says. “Even if you leave<br />

the game for a while, you can go back any time.”<br />

Sophia, playing with Lucy Zhang, says bridge is<br />

fun for her because “I like the thinking.”<br />

Saturday, August 3, 2013<br />

Virginia, Texas players<br />

endorse the ‘brain game’<br />

Hailey Botkins and Bernadette<br />

Williams are on a roll. In two days<br />

of play in the Card Rook Pairs at the<br />

Youth NABC, the 12-year-olds have<br />

won three times, twice in Strat A and<br />

once in Strat B. They are planning<br />

to play in the World Youth Open<br />

<strong>Bridge</strong> Championships, which start<br />

on Sunday.<br />

Hailey and Bernadette – Bernie<br />

to friends – are part of a group of six<br />

young players from Williamsburg<br />

VA put together by Jim Davis, their<br />

teacher, mentor and one of the city’s<br />

most active promoters of bridge.<br />

Davis has been teaching and<br />

promoting bridge to young players<br />

since the fall of 2011, when his wife<br />

passed away. Shortly thereafter, he<br />

read an article about a man who was<br />

teaching bridge to elementary school<br />

students. He approached the teacher<br />

and asked if he could help, “and I<br />

liked it so much I wanted to do it on<br />

my own.”<br />

Davis is now teaching bridge<br />

at two schools. At the 2012 Spring<br />

NABC in Memphis, Davis took the Teacher<br />

Accreditation Program (TAP). At a sectional in<br />

Williamsburg this spring, he talked the organizers<br />

into letting him run a youth sectional.<br />

He’s is excited about the Youth NABC and the<br />

World <strong>Bridge</strong> Federation tournament that follows this<br />

weekend.<br />

“It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Davis<br />

says.<br />

He notes that he is not surprised that Hailey and<br />

Bernadette have done so well at the tournament:<br />

“They have progressed so much faster.” At home in<br />

Williamsburg, the girls go to “lots of tournaments.”<br />

Says Hailey: “<strong>Bridge</strong> makes me smarter.” Bernadette<br />

says her father told her he would buy her an iPhone5<br />

if she came in first, second or third in an event. She’s<br />

hoping the multiple first-place finishes will help her<br />

get a phone for her partner.<br />

He says Chris Compton was helpful in arranging<br />

funding for the trip from Williamsburg to Atlanta, but<br />

the kids did some fundraising on their own, selling<br />

flower bulbs. Unit 110 in Williamsburg also pledged<br />

support.<br />

Jim Davis, a bridge teacher from Williamsburg VA, brought these<br />

players to compete in the Youth NABC. Front, Hailey Botkin and<br />

Emma Millikin, Bernadette Williams; rear, Helber Oliveira, Kristian<br />

Stephani and Matt La Rosée.<br />

Davis retired from his job as contract<br />

administrator for the U.S. Department of Defense.<br />

Ever since, he says, “it’s been bridge, bridge, bridge.”<br />

Another enthusiastic group of players arrived<br />

in Atlanta from north central Texas, accompanied<br />

by their grandmother, Dorothy Moore, who lives in<br />

Keller TX, about 30 miles from Dallas, and teaches<br />

bridge in the Dallas suburb of Arlington.<br />

Moore’s foursome is made up of Laura Dunlap,<br />

10, and Thomas Dunlap, 7, of Keller. Matt Pope, 9,<br />

and Katie Pope, 10, also came along. They live in<br />

Justin, about 40 miles from Dallas.<br />

The three oldest, Moore says, attended a bridge<br />

camp last year put on by Donna Compton, and they<br />

went back for more this summer. Moore lets the<br />

children play in the 0-300 game she runs when they<br />

get a chance.<br />

<strong>Bridge</strong>, Moore says, “is extra helpful for<br />

thinking, and the kids have learned a lot about<br />

cooperation.”<br />

Laura says bridge is fun for her because “it gets<br />

you thinking – and I get to spend more time with my<br />

brother.” He agrees: “It gets your brain started.”<br />

These Texas players are attending their first Youth NABC: Laura Dunlap, Thomas Dunlap, Katie Pope<br />

and Matt Pope. With them is Dorothy Moore.<br />

Grace Stoker and Kendall Spalding.<br />

Katherine and Krystal Wu won the Friday<br />

Afternoon Cardrook Pairs.<br />

Second place in the Youth Consolation Pairs<br />

went to Eric Rodriguez and Piper Ziebarth.<br />

Wilbert Liu and Sireesh Ramesh came in first in<br />

the Youth Consolation Pairs, Strat C.

The Grand National Teams is a North <strong>American</strong><br />

contest with all 25 ACBL districts participating.<br />

In 1985, the event was subdivided into three<br />

separate events: Flights A, B and C. Another change<br />

came in 2001 when the GNT Championship Flight<br />

(for players with more than 5000 masterpoints) was<br />

created. Flight A is now a 0-5000 event.<br />

The winners of the Championship Flight will<br />

have their names engraved on the Morehead Trophy,<br />

donated by The New York Times in memory of its<br />

longtime bridge editor Albert H. Morehead. The<br />

winners of Flight A will have their names engraved<br />

on the Goldman Trophy, named in honor of the late<br />

Bobby Goldman.<br />

Albert H. Morehead<br />

Morehead (1909-1996)<br />

was born in Flintstone GA<br />

and educated at Baylor and<br />

Harvard. Ely Culbertson<br />

hired him in 1932 because<br />

of his outstanding ability<br />

as a player and analyst and<br />

made him technical editor<br />

of The <strong>Bridge</strong> World in<br />

1933.<br />

He proved so invaluable that in 1934 he was<br />

made general manager of all Culbertson enterprises.<br />

He was only 25 when he played on the Culbertson<br />

team that defeated the British in the second<br />

international match for the Schwab Cup.<br />

Morehead was the first bridge editor of The New<br />

York Times with a Sunday column from 1935 and a<br />

daily column from 1959. He resigned from the Times<br />

late in 1963 to devote full time to writing, editing<br />

and publishing of the dictionaries, encyclopedias<br />

and thesauruses that made him one of the foremost<br />

<strong>American</strong> lexicographers.<br />

During those years, Morehead found time for<br />

tremendous service to organized bridge. He was an<br />

officer of the United States <strong>Bridge</strong> Association when<br />

that organization amalgamated with the <strong>American</strong><br />

<strong>Bridge</strong> <strong>League</strong> in 1937.<br />

He became a governor of the newly formed<br />

ACBL and served as president in 1943 and chairman<br />

of the board from 1943 to 1945. He was named<br />

ACBL Honorary Member in 1946.<br />

Morehead was a member of the National Laws<br />

Commission and was in charge of production of the<br />

International Laws of <strong>Contract</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong>. He was also<br />

the author of the constitution of the World <strong>Bridge</strong><br />

Federation — the first formal definition of the scope,<br />

structure, powers and duties of that organization.<br />

Morehead was named to the ACBL <strong>Bridge</strong> Hall<br />

of Fame in 1996.<br />

Bobby Goldman<br />

Bobby Goldman<br />

(1938-1999), who became<br />

a member of the ACBL<br />

<strong>Bridge</strong> Hall of Fame in<br />

his first year of eligibility,<br />

enjoyed a stellar career as a<br />

player, author and theorist.<br />

His tournament record is<br />

impressive. He earned four<br />

world titles (the Bermuda<br />

Bowl in 1970, 1971 and<br />

1979 and the World Mixed Teams in 1972) and 19<br />

North <strong>American</strong> championships: the Life Master<br />

Men’s Pairs (1964); the Life Master Pairs (1968); the<br />

Open B-A-M Teams (1993); the Men’s Teams (1968,<br />

1989 and 1991); the Spingold Knockout Teams<br />

(1969, 1978, 1983, 1986 and 1988); the Reisinger<br />

B-A-M Teams (1970, 1976 and 1980); the Vanderbilt<br />

Knockout Teams (1971, 1973, 1978, 1997 and 1998).<br />

Goldman also had 13 second-place finishes in NABC<br />

events.<br />

At the time of his induction into the Hall of<br />

Fame, Goldman was an ACBL Grand Life Master<br />

with more than 25,700 masterpoints, and ranked<br />

ninth on the all-time list of masterpoint holders. He<br />

was also a WBF World Grand Master.<br />

Goldman authored several books on the game,<br />

including Aces Scientific and Winners and Losers<br />

Grand National Teams<br />

at the <strong>Bridge</strong> Table. His contributions to bidding<br />

theory include Super Gerber, Kickback, Exclusion<br />

Blackwood and Goldman after Stayman. He was<br />

one of the principal architects of the Aces Scientific<br />

System.<br />

Goldman served as ACBL recorder from<br />

1986-1988 and was a longtime member of the<br />

Competitions and Conventions Committee. His views<br />

on the game helped shape the modern-day Alert<br />

procedure, the ACBL convention chart, ethics and the<br />

appeals process.<br />

Goldman was honored by the ACBL by being<br />

named the 1999 Honorary Member, presented for<br />

long and meritorious service to bridge.<br />

Goldman’s early career was distinguished<br />

by his association with the now-famous Aces,<br />

the professional, Texas-based team created by<br />

businessman Ira Corn for the purpose of winning<br />

world bridge championships. Goldman was a<br />

member of the successful squad until 1974.<br />

Alfred Sheinwold<br />

Alfred Sheinwold<br />

(1912-1997) was one of the<br />

greatest bridge writers in the<br />

history of the game. He was<br />

inducted into the <strong>Bridge</strong><br />

Hall of Fame in 1996.<br />

His syndicated bridge<br />

column was considered by<br />

many to be the best. He<br />

had a knack for getting his<br />

point across to even the least experienced players. He<br />

managed this by making sure that every column had<br />

only one main point, marking it easier for his readers<br />

to focus.<br />

“You could read a Sheinwold column and know<br />

in an instant that nobody else could have written it,”<br />

said Frank Stewart, co-author of the column. “He<br />

enlightened and entertained players through seven<br />

decades and earned millions of fans.”<br />

Sheinwold was an editor of The <strong>Bridge</strong> World<br />

from 1934 to 1963 and editor of The <strong>Bridge</strong> Bulletin<br />

from 1953 to 1958. He was also the author of perhaps<br />

the most successful bridge book ever written, 5<br />

Weeks to Winning <strong>Bridge</strong>, a book that sold in the<br />

millions.<br />

Sheinwold served as chairman of the ACBL<br />

Laws Commission from 1964 to 1975, as chairman<br />

of the appeals committees at NABCs and as chairman<br />

of the ACBL Board of Governors from 1970 to 1973.<br />

He was named ACBL Honorary Member of the Year<br />

in 1983.<br />

Robin Mac Nab<br />

Robin Mac Nab<br />

(1915-1985) served as<br />

a member of the ACBL<br />

Board of Directors from<br />

1956 to 1981. He was<br />

ACBL president in 1965.<br />

He was a past president of<br />

the Western Conference,<br />

a member of the ACBL<br />

Laws Commission and a<br />

member of the executive<br />

council of the World <strong>Bridge</strong><br />

Federation.<br />

Mac Nab, a graduate of Cornell University, was<br />

a member of the U.S. Olympic track and field squad<br />

in 1936.<br />

A Look Back at the 2005 Atlanta NABC<br />

This is Atlanta’s seventh NABC. Previous<br />

tournaments were in 1954, 1971, 1977, 1986, 1995<br />

and 2005.<br />

The 2013 Tournament Chair Jack Feagin also<br />

headed up the 2005 Summer NABC. In fact, the<br />

2013 tournament makes the fourth NABC under<br />

Jack’s guidance.<br />

Attendance in 2005 was 13,463 tables.<br />

David Berkowitz was the master of ceremonies<br />

for the 2005 Hall of Fame banquet. Betty Ann<br />

Kennedy and Kit Woolsey were elected to the Hall.<br />

Marshall Miles was presented with the Blackwood<br />

Award for his tremendous contributions to bridge.<br />

The late Percy Sheardown received the von Zedtwitz<br />

Award given to bridge stars from many decades ago.<br />

Bittner, Randall Rubenstein and Christina Craige,<br />

won the College Team Championship.<br />

Geoff Hampson won the Fishbein Award,<br />

given to the ACBL member who wins the most<br />

masterpoints at the Summer NABC. Last minute<br />

corrections caused some scoring bobbles in the<br />

von Zedtwitz Life Master Pairs, but when the dust<br />

cleared, Pat McDevitt and Stephen Gladyszak were<br />

the winners. Russ Ekeblad’s squad (Ron Rubin,<br />

Geoff Hampson, Eric Grecco, Fred Gitelman and<br />

Brad Moss) won the Spingold.<br />

The Grosvenor Coup struck Steve Beatty of<br />

Bothell WA on Board 24 of the first session of the<br />

2005 von Zedtwitz Life Master Pairs.<br />

Beatty, South, declared 3♣ after an uncontested<br />

auction. The opening lead was the ♥Q. Beatty won<br />

this with dummy’s ace and cashed the ♥K, discarding<br />

a diamond. He next cashed the ♠A and ♠K, ruffed a<br />

spade in dummy, and ruffed a heart back to his hand.<br />

When he now led his last spade, West discarded<br />

instead of ruffing with the ♣10. That was the play<br />

that led to Beatty’s undoing. He ruffed the spade in<br />

dummy and led the ♣9. When East followed low,<br />

Beatty took the “marked” finesse into West’s ♣10.<br />

Mike Passell found the winning line of play<br />

when he and partner Eddie Wold bid this thin slam<br />

in an early match in the 2005 Grand National Teams<br />

Championship flight.<br />

West, Steve Weinstein, led a low heart. With<br />

only eight top tricks, Passell, South, had little choice<br />

but to finesse, and the ♥10 won. He led a diamond<br />

to the ace to repeat the heart finesse, and now had<br />

to develop two more tricks. The odds were poor for<br />

finding them in clubs (he’d need a 3–3 break and<br />

the ♣K in the West hand), so he decided to go for a<br />

minor-suit endplay.<br />

Passell cashed two more hearts, pitching a club<br />

and a spade from his hand, then cashed the ♠A K<br />

and the ♦K Q. He led a low diamond to East, Bobby<br />

Levin, who had to lead a club. Passell won the last<br />

three tricks with the ♣Q, ♣A and the long diamond.<br />

That was a 13-IMP pickup for the Passell-Wold<br />

team, since the contract at the other table was 3NT.<br />

Don’t give declarer a ruff and sluff<br />

. . . or should you? (2005)<br />

Cathy Strauch and Margie Gwozdzinsky made<br />

an aggressive double then backed it up with a nice<br />

Strauch duly switched to a diamond and declarer<br />

a trump trick for her partner and thus setting the<br />

contract.

Saturday’s Strati-Flighted A/X and B/C/D Pairs are named in honor of the late<br />

ACBL National Tournament Director Millard Nachtwey, who died one year ago<br />

today at his home in Silver Spring MD.<br />

Nachtwey, a well-known figure to players at Mid-Atlantic Regionals, served<br />

as Director-in-Charge of the Fall NABCs for more than a decade. He is survived<br />

by Doug Grove, his partner of many years and a fellow National Tournament<br />

Director. Grove will work the game today.<br />

The Saturday-Sunday Knockout Teams are named in honor of the late Hall of<br />

Famer Russ Arnold of Miami FL. Arnold served as mentor to several top players<br />

including Bobby Levin, who became a longtime friend and partner of Arnold.<br />

They were members of the winning Bermuda Bowl squad in 1981.
