We can be a backup pair...

Bottom line is we never let that difference of opinion interfere with anything."

You got it bro, its all yours and i will be there to cheer for ya guys as well as others from forums.

Just a reminder to all who plays, i know not neccesarry for any of you but i am just saying. No logging in with 2 or more accounts even if other acct doesnt watch the JEC match. All undos should be accepted regardless of the reason. They use this a lot, please dont be shy to ask for undo when needed.

Lately JEC had some issues with the alerts of opponents and he actually left the match in the middle this afternoon. Please make sure to alert clearly. After all this is his show, we are guests.

Regardless of the outcome of the match, we are with you, try to have fun, have experience and have a good bridge game guys, good luck ! Go get em tigers ! :)

Our team is

If any of you pairs wanna play specifically at JEC table letme know, or i am putting Inquiry and Barmar there.

We are going to alert 80% of the bids so its probably better if we dont play at JC table.

I doubt that barmar and I will have many alerts.... so us at jec table maybe best.... I just hope I don't have more than 8 personal hands to add to the blunder blog after the match is over.

The match almost went our way... it it was only six boards long.

Final score 117 to 32 for jec... the interesting hands will be posted in individual threads (name board in title, jec #3, then board number for easy reference.

Ok we lost the 3rd match.

There were too many slam hands and other team handled critical decisions better than us, just like 1st and 2nd match.

Thanks to Ben-Barmar-Benlessard and Zzayats for playing there.

As I tell my mother when I call her after a weekend of bridge, I don't care whether I win or lose (if I did, I'd be in trouble), it's always fun. And playing against opponents like these was great.
