32 Boards Away From The Bronze - Venice Cup, Chennai 2015 (14)

With 32 boards to play today, we are leading the battle for the bronze medal by 32 IMPs.   The lead is far from decisive but it is a good position to be in. 


As usual, there were many highs and lows during the first 48 hands but we managed to pull away towards the end of yesterday's play - gaining two game swings due to good declarer play in one room and tight defence in the other.

In the final, the French are leading USA II by the narrowest of margins, 96.7 - 96, and I am hoping that our match does not become as close as that !

Having played so well so far, there is every reason to be confident!
