A team from the forums will be taking on some of the Scotland U20 team tomorrow evening. It is 16 boards starting at 7pm Edinburgh, 8pm Amsterdam, 9pm Talinn/Riga, 11am Los Angeles.

BBF: gwnn-kuhchung, soljaboy-phoenix214

Scotland U20: junnpinder-kenzo258, ronanv-liamob96

The Scots will all be off to the 25th European Youth Bridge Team Championships in Tromsø, Norway, in a week's time and appreciate the BBF team giving up their time for a game. Hopefully gwnn wil be videoing the match.

Would it be technically feasible to merge gwnn's and kuhchung's comments into the same video? I suppose it is a bit much to demand. But it would be really cool!

They've done it in BBC's unique (there I go again...) Master Game but it was post-recorded. But in chess it makes a lot of sense to listen to alternating players since each turn usually lasts at least a minute or two. Pretty sure it would be possible in bridge too but it would take creative editing skills and a lot of time, neither of which do I have at my disposal.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

The important system is that you video capture the match and post to youtube, no? :)

I hope the match ends in 3 sets... Otherwise who knows how many people will show up and me jumping up and down after every Fed ace would make for bad television.

Pretty stupid from me to discard all those spades pd (in two different boards), thanks for not swearing at me!
