Looking for a partner for Tues 3:15 and perhaps beyond, who plays the Master Series. Most important: major suit raises, 2/1 major slams and continuing after semi-F 1NT, multilandy, 2-way NMF, minor suit slams and slams after 1NT, transfer Lebensohl. And of course all the related playing advice. Contact jswood on Intobridge or BBO.

Hi, I'm an intermediate-to-advanced player currently playing Gavin's Master Series Full on IntoBridge, looking for a partner for the Wolpert Free Duplicate game and potentially further. Like playing the Master Series but am open to alterations. Willing to develop a serious partnership. I'm based in the UK (GMT timezone). Best to contact on IntoBridge (my handle is mtbridge9) or on BBO (same handle).

Jerrold: Did you send me today email on BBO ? I "managed" to delete few of them before reading. Just bad luck. Somehow I remember partial id and checked Govin's side. I posted here couple of month ago when I was looking for BBO partner to play once a week. My BBO id "sopociak". Couldn't find jalbm49 on BBO
