59% wow!

brief post; I’ve been playing a lot with my mentor and I’m still amazed and very grateful to be playing with such a nice person and good player, my game has completely changed.

We were 2nd overall last night with 59% - my best result yet.

I have a few main area’s to work on – COUNTING, relaxing, concentrating, signaling and remembering the conventions we’ve added. It is a lot easier adding conventions when you have the basics sorted out and your partner is keen to discuss the various auctions.

I can't recommend the mentor program highly enough. if you are a beginner/intermediate and your club offers a mentoring program – jump at it!
Many thanks to the Vancouver Bridge Centre and of course the mentors. :-)

I'll be playing a couple of sessions in a sectional with Peter next month and looking for a partner for the other days.
How lucky am I?? More on that later!

Now back to counting, less time messing around on BBO and forums :)
