3. Tournament movement:
This
tournament will be run in two sessions, the afternoon and evening session,
about 24 boards will be played in each session.
At the beginning of each session, players will be
randomly drawn into several groups (8 players in a group); A special movement
designed by Richard Pavlicek (www.rpbridge.net) will be used in this race, but
we will cut short in 6 rounds for each session, so 4 boards for each round. At
most, a player will meet the other player as partner on 4 boards, as opponent
on 8 boards.
Each
round, player should brief your bidding and signaling system with your new
partner. A standard American Yellow Card (SAYC) or 2/1 is recommended.
