What was really interesting for more than 200 juniors that were kibitzing the game, were the explanations for each voice in the auction and each card and technique deployed in the play of the card by the players. A master class for all players and surely some grown up must have been watching too… Every Wednesday seek the table where: Vdoubleu and / or JuniorsBBO are and take advantage!
