Peggy Bayer 2025 - Saturday #1

There is now this improved results page for the Peggy Bayer WBU Results although it hasn't improved our score against England, which remains a 16-4 loss. This is actually a pretty good result, as the IMP scale is harsh and in fact they only lost by 29-54 IMPs. 

On speaking to the team afterwards it seems both pairs defended on both tables for most of the hands, which is probably a little to do with less confidence than the cocky English, and also less practice in a competitive auction. 

I will have a look at a a hand or two with them over breakfast. Here is one I'll ask about


Everyone in 4S? You'd think North overcalls Spades at some point and South bids game. But our North-South pair defended 3D. On the plus side they did beat it (by three tricks).

This morning we have Northern Ireland, then the EBU (second England team).
