Attendance So Far

275½ tables at the end of Day Five (Friday), 37.6% of the 2018 total.
In 2025, there were 605½ tables to this point at the fall regional in Whistler.
In October 2023 here, there were 288 tables to this point.
In April 2022 here, there were 276½ tables to this point.

Table Counts page!

Bridge clubs and tournaments throughout the ACBL are struggling with returning to live play, so comparing this tournament’s attendance to one before the pandemic is not really fair. We'll hope to get around 60% of the 2018 attendance, making the target number 571 tables this time — but perhaps we will be pleasantly surprised!





Masterpoint Leaders thru Friday

(There are slight differences between this list, which we think is correct, and the one on ACBL Live, which seems to have had difficulty displaying the 2½ table Howell in the Wednesday Gold Rush.)

Results — Day Five — Friday, April 17



Friday Open Pairs

Winners: Howard Epley, Karen Epley

Little remained to do for halftime leaders Howard and Karen Epley but hold off the pair a bit behind them at the break; the rest were three boards or or back. A few good rounds early on were enough to open up a two board lead on everyone and they cruised to victory by two and a quarter boards. Under-4000 winners Ann Romeo and Paul Evanoff were only a few matchpoints back of the leaders in second place at the interval, and took over the lead after two rounds of the evening session, eventually winning by a half board with a big last round. Strat C under-3000 winners Richard and Linda Kelly came out of nowhere: four and a half boards back of the leaders at the break after a tough afternoon; they reeled the leaders in and overtook them on the last round, winning by only about half a top, and taking third place in Strat B (from tenth at the break!).

Two-session pairs event, scored in matchpoints.  Strat limits (by pair average): A: 4000+ / B: 3000 - 4000 / C: 0 - 3000.  
Average masterpoints for players in this event: 4078

Evening Side Series Final

Winners: Brett Goldston, Sorin Blebea

Tomorrow's Side Pair Games are at 10:30 and 3:30.

Overall awards in the Evening, after 5 completed sessions.  Scores are based on the sum (in percent) of an individuals two best games, even if played with different partners.  Side Game overall awards are in gold points and replace the points you won in individual games in the series.  But if you played several games and got masterpoints, that sum may be higher than your overall award, and you would get the overall award in gold points and the rest of your sum in red points.

Brain Workout Section!

For those of you who used to like the puzzles I printed in the old bulletins, here is a link to an online version: one of the puzzles that I used to feature in the old paper Bulletins, but it is easy to play on a computer as well. Not so easy on a tablet or phone, since most of the puzzles require right-clicks, not easily done in a tablet or phone environment.

Unruly gives you a grid of gray squares which you must color in as black or white (some are given as free hints), while keeping to these rules: 1) No three consecutive cells may be the same color going up-down or left-right (diagonally there may be a run of cells of the same color); 2) Each row and column has the same number of black and white cells; and 3) No two rows and no two columns may have exactly the same sequence of black and white cells.

Strategy: Begin by looking for two adjacent cells of the same color and color the cells on either side in the opposite color, to avoid a three-in-a-row. Do the same with white-gray-white, or black-gray-black; the middle cell can be colored in the opposite color to avoid a three-in-a-row. This process will create more opportunities to determine the correct colors of cells, but eventually you will have to consult the other two rules to complete the grid.

These puzzles come from Simon Tatham’s Portable Puzzle Collection (see below) and there are links there to apps for most devices.
