Together with BTCC anchorman Jan van Cleeff they discussed items such as the upcoming European Championships and much more.

The audience was invited to participate the discussions on every bridge subject they like. They ony had to send a Skype request to BTCChannel (our Skype name) and BTCC contacted them and connect them to the live show.

They feel that 8 pm Central European might be a good option as it is convenient for a greater part of the world. Don’t hesitate to share your views and ideas about our shows and websites.
