Dear friends, Last Wednesday’s match with the team of Vienna ended our hopes for a surprise result and a place in the quarterfinals of the autumn edition of the ICL. They beat us by 5 IMPs, quite a narrow margin. I think that they beat us because they managed to make fewer mistakes during play,Continue reading “Goodbye, 2022 autumn edition of ICL”

Dear Inge-Lise, Sandra, Øystein and Marcello, Last Wednesday’s result was a great relief. In spite of facing a team with famous, strong players, you managed to obliterate Saarbrücken. Once again, nicely done!!!! I have already sent you by email the deals that were played in this match. I will not waste time, analyzing that weContinue reading “Kampala wins Saarbrücken and faces the team of Vienna in the KO 16 phase”

Dear friends, I’ve done a bit of research on this team. Saarbrücken has qualified 4th in its group (B). They seem to have decent roster of players : erfan 87 – Tom S / yoshka- darnim against Bratislava (won this match) and horacek- phobos / yoshka- darnim against Poznan (lost in this match). Tom SContinue reading “Our KO match on Wednesday with Saarbrücken”

Dear friends, On Sunday the team of Kampala faced the team of HMS Valiant, representing ACOL. Overall, it was, indeed, a challenging match.

In the first half, our most serious mistake (a gross misclick) wasContinue reading “Last night’s IAC-ACOL challenge”

Dear friends, Our team has made it to the knock-out stage first in our group. The last match with the team of Zadar was an interesting one. In spite of the few mistakes that we made (mea culpa), we managed to turn the match around and, thanks also to the proper defense of Sandra andContinue reading “End of the round robin”

Dear friends, As you well know, last Wednesday match with the team of Dubrovnik was a good one for our team, as we had hoped and expected. The final score was 31-12 in favor of Kampala; however it was not at all obvious from the beginning that it would end up well. On the contrary,Continue reading “Another sound victory for Kampala and another team from Croatia to face on Wednesday”

Dear friends, Last Wednesday’s result of our match against the team of Foça was a clear victory for us. Indeed, only two boards out of 16 were won by our opponents. The two pairs of our opponents seemed not to be communicating properly, or were, in fact, dumbfounded by the excellent bidding and play of ourContinue reading “Rejoice”

Dear friends, As you well know, last Wednesday our opponents didn’t show up. I haven’t got any news from Willem (our manager), however on Thursday he let me know that, most probably, this is going to count as a loss for the team of Bakirkoy and we shouldn’t have to play again with them. InContinue reading “Wednesday’s match !!!”
