No crying in bridge

But it's tempting after another second-place finish. Qualifying for the final had plenty of excitement; we were on the border with just a few boards to go and won a couple of big swings. But then in the first 16 boards of the final Sorkin-Mandell and Mouser-Defotis added 38 to their carryover of 16, and not much happened in the next 16. Congrats to them. I'll post some hands eventually, but am tired now and will have to catch up on work before Reno starts on Friday! I'll check in during Reno; excited about playing in the first running of the platinum pairs, with Josh Sher.

sorry bud was rooting for you. sorkin-mandell played well...impressive to beat that field 4-handed, that event was exhausting!

I was also rooting for you, so was sorry to hear the bad news. Those guys were not brilliant against us, but they certainly were solid, especially, as Drew said, with just a foursome.
