@broze do you still have the link of this match?

I'll assume the result is true anyway......

Yes result was correct. Here is the link for posterity.

it stinks when you know you've tossed 30 imps in 4 hands and trying to figure out if you need to take chances the last 12 hands of the set

It only bids 2/1 with 13+ HCP. Doesn't even consider that worth more than a balanced 12HCP either, since it only adds shortness points, and not for Ax or Jx

Stephen Tu  	47  22  61  78 208
ovncylmz   	9   32	14  24 79

ovncylmz started swinging in the middle of the third quarter and it got rather silly in the end.

Set 3: stoppiello 18 - 11 sfi

http://webutil.bridg...481505366&u=sfi

A miserable set of boards, with South averaging a touch under 7.4 points per hand. I made 9 bids all set, while my opponent made 10.

Unfortunately, I sent chuck11 a challenge for the 4th set with the box 'best hand' checked. Apparently you can't delete challenge requests with persons marked as friend yourself, so I have to wait for chuck11 to reject the request and issue the correct one himself. Of course, I immediately sent him a message in-game so hopefully he won't play the wrong boards.

I think "advanced" robots decided to swing earlier than third quarter

And third quarter, they were at their top form - not me

Good game Stephen:)

In reference to Mkgnao's above post, I cannot decline the challenge either, I tried. Sent a message to support, the answer is either play it out or wait until it expires. The real problem is our inability to have more than a single challenge active. I know I was able to have 4 simultaneous challenges active in the previous KOs (#4), and I had multiple challenges active in the elimination rounds of this event. There is something squirrelly between my account and Mkgnao's.

If waiting the challenge out delays us too much, I will concede for the sake of moving the tournament along, I'm down around 50, so it would take some heroics to get back in the match with a single set left.

Just go down 7nt x -13 in every hand, will take like less than 5 minutes. Then send a new one.
Same for mkgnao.
