Riga Invites to Jurmala ends with Polish-Lithuanian success.

23 teams participated in the Teams tournament. All the results were very exciting: Polish-Lithuanian team ERA (E.Vainikonis, A.Orlovich, P.Zatorski and M.Klukovski) won Latvian-Iceland-Denmark team Eyjafjallajokull (M.Lorencs, J.Bethers, J.Sigurjonsson and D. Ostergaard) by 21:19. Play-off for the 3rd place was won by even less margin: on the last board Latvian-Russian team Ksenia (U.Bethers, A.Imsa, K.Nekrasova un I.Volozenin) won team SweRusIsr (B.Wenneberg, P.Leandersson, A.Erastova and L.Fisher) by one overtrick IMP – 27:26.

Open pair’s tournament was played by 59 pairs. Winners with 63% were M.Klukovski-A.Orlovich, A.Erastova-L.Fisher finished 2nd with 61,7%, B.Gierulski-J.Skrypczak were 3rd with 61,2%. The bid of the day was made by William Eisenberg on the last board of the tournament:

There is a bridge tip to never put down eight card side suit in the dummy, but as I had nine cards in clubs, I was secure of the result! 6♠ bid helped W.Eisenberg-K.Rubins to finish in the 4th place. All details and results you can find at www.rigainvites.lv.
