[Bska] Skat tournament with a difference

[miketob at aol.com]

Hello All,

 
Our next tournament will be held on Saturday June 26th at our usual venue, the Young Chelsea Bridge Club, 32 Barkston Gardens, Earl's Court, London SW5 0EN, 2 min walk from Earls Ct tube (Earls Ct Rd exit). . 
  
Instead of our usual synchron (duplicate) format, we'll be dealing the cards normally at each table, which will allow lady luck to play a bigger part.  There will be prizes, not just for the overall tournament, but also for things like best session score, hand won against the most matadors etc, so that everyone's in with a shout of winning something even on the last hand of the day.  I also intend not to 'seed' the sessions and either have a draw for seats in each round or - depending on numbers - arrange it so that no-one plays the same person twice. The emphasis will be on fun rather than serious.
 
The premises will open at 11:00. As with our previous events, registration will be between 11-00 and 11-15, play will start at 11-30, and consist of 4 rounds of Skat, ending approx 6-30pm. The entry fee is £9.00, and you are welcome to play any or all of the rounds.  

We encourage players of ALL abilities, and aim for an enjoyable, as well as a competitive day. 

Light lunches are available, very reasonably priced.  

To give me an idea of numbers, it would help if you let me know in advance if you intend to play, (The more entrants I know about, the more I spend on prizes) but late entries can be accepted on the day if you find yourself unexpectedly free. Just phone or text me before 11-00am on 07940 591263. 
 
Feel free to phone or email me with any questions, and I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on the 26th.

Mike Tobias
