Bridge club holds annual winter teams championship
Brisbane Water Bridge Club's annual winter teams championship was conducted this year in a revised format and attracted a strong field including many former winners.
The teams format gave all players a better chance of collecting some red points.
The leaders after the first round were Team Fane with 33 points after a decisive win.
They were less fortunate in Round 2 surrendering the lead to Team Lindsay, who continued on their winning way to retain their lead going into Round 4.
They had a handy lead of 16 points over the eventual winners.
Director Peter Hume was kept busy all day with a slight computer glitch.
The club's Super Congress will be held over the weekend of July 22 and 23, with pairs on Saturday and teams on Sunday.
