Several things combined last year to create excellent attendance and with two regionals in the past ten weeks in Victoria and Vancouver, it might be a tough task to produce the stellar numbers we had last year. But let's count tables and see how we're doing...
195 tables at the end of Monday play; down from last year by only 5 tables (-2.5%). Not a bad start!
After Monday evening: pairs games only, no points in yet for the knockouts, since we count only completed events and the first knockout is not yet over.

Have a look at the masterpoints page to see totals for everyone, including red-gold breakdowns, updated each night by about midnight.
Still waiting for the information packet from Penticton tournament chair Marv Norden, but by know virtually everyone knows the places to visit and the best spots for good meals. Assuming that things go as they usually do, we should have a pregame lecture in the main room before the evening session tonight, and music sending us out into the night on Wednesday and Friday evening as we leave, probably with the chance of a dance or two before we go. A few large signs have been posted on the topic of who is eligible for a winners prize and how to claim them. There are even designated meeting places with letters! (No, the meeting spots have not been stratified, anyone can choose to meet at meeting place A...)
Of course the obvious spots to visit on site are the concession stand, the Hospitality Desk, the Partnership area, and the TournTables bridge books and supplies. We'll try to get the open hours for them for tomorrow's page.
Nicholas Stock and Gordon McOrmond, the bumping pair in the one 14½ table section sat out the first round, stared at the computer sheet that told them where to go each round, admitted that they did not remember ever doing this before, and then scored up a near 68% game! With six more 13 table sections scoring across the huge 92½ table field, top on a board was 91 and the winners claimed 1606 matchpoints!
