KC Bridge History I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD HAPPEN >Back to Home Page >Back to Bridge History Home Page |
What a cryptic title for this page. When I started playing bridge, I never dreamed of amassing as many masterpoints as I did. Once I got over 20,000 I became aware that most people ahead of me were grand life masters which is the highest award in the ACBL needing (10,000 MP + a national championship). I had thoughts that at the end I would have the most masterpoints without a national title. Heaven forbid. Year after year passed without winning a national title although close many times. Finally in summer 2007 playing with Linda Eakes, Jack Spear, and Nancy Spear in the National Mixed Team Board A Match in Nashville Tennessee, WE WON, WE WON. A two day event in which going into the last session we rallied from tenth place to win a national championship and 110 platinum points. WOW IT HAPPENED. What a team they were and what great friends. They saved me from the stigma of no national championship. |
