I'll be drawing an amateur partner to play in the Pro-Am game on Monday afternoon, and I have a team entering the Tuesday-Wednesday Knockout Teams. It's potentially a four-session event, so if I make it to the final round, we'll be playing on Wednesday afternoon! On Sunday Jane and I will fly to Chicago for the American Bridge Teachers Association meeting, and a few days playing at the North American Bridge Championships. Zach Vedro and Paula Olivares will be helping out with game and class duties while I'm away. New Player Games in Long Beach Monday through Saturday at 10:00 AM, there's a 0-300 game at the tournament. On Friday they're also offering a game for 0-100 players! This is a great opportunity for new players to experience being at a big bridge tournament, and play against other new players. You don't need a reservation, just come to the game and buy an entry. There's even a partnership desk where you can meet a friendly player and join the game. Each afternoon at 2:15 there's a guest lecture from a great player or teacher with some tips for your bridge game. The tournament flier includes the schedule and other information about the tournament.
