Washington DC • July 21-31, 2016
88th North American Bridge Championships
A member of the ACBL and the
American Bridge Association (ABA)
since the mid-1980s, she did not play
bridge while she pursued her legal
career and only recently returned to
the game.
A certified ABA bridge instructor,
Dunn taught several beginning bridge
classes at Chicago public libraries,
community centers and her local club.
One of her favorite bridge memories
is winning the ABA Silver Life Master
Player of the Year and she looks
forward to advancing up the ACBL ranks.
What follows is a closer look at ACBL’s new
counsel.
Dunn, 60, was born in West Helena AR, about
75 miles southwest of Memphis, where she spent her
teen years. She graduated from Hamilton High School
in 1974 and began an education odyssey that resulted
in three degrees from Harvard, including one from the
Harvard Law School.
Dunns started college at Radcliffe, a liberal
arts college that functioned as a female coordinate
institution for the all-male Harvard. The school
became coed in 1977.
Ever busy, Dunn was active on the Radcliffe
campus, organizing events and social clubs. Her
advisors told her she should go to business school.
The Golden Touch
During the last week of June, Mitch Towner gave
King Midas a run for his money – a million-dollar
run, to be exact – and topped it off by earning a
boatload of masterpoints. Gold, of course.
The 29-year-old Towner of Tucson AZ is an
up-and-comer in the world of top-level bridge. He’s
notched two second-place finishes in limited NABC
contests - the 2009 Red Ribbon Pairs playing with his
father, and the 2013 Grand National Teams, Flight A
– and he was a member of the U.S. Junior Team from
2010 to 2013. Towner is most proud, however, of his
13th-place finish in this year’s Platinum Pairs playing
with John Ramos of West Hollywood CA.
But Towner has been a fan of poker for
many years, too, and has begun trying his luck at
tournaments. Towner, an assistant professor of finance
at the University of Arizona, describes himself as
being very much an amateur at the game, and he
came up empty-handed in his first few forays into
money events. In late June, Towner entered the 2016
World Series of Poker’s Monster Stack No-Limit
Hold’em tournament in Las Vegas and stunned the
poker world by winning the contest that featured
a field of almost 7,000 players. Towner took home
a check for $1,120,196 and a coveted WSOP gold
bracelet, given exclusively to winners. Not bad for a
$1500 buy-in.
Towner’s win in Las Vegas was an exciting Act
1 to that week; Act 2 was waiting for him in Los
Angeles where he had previously agreed to play in
the Long Beach Regional with Ramos and teammates
Bob Etter of Sacramento CA and Alex Kolesnik of
Ventura CA. Believing he would likely be eliminated

ACBL hires new counsel
Linda Dunn, an attorney with
extensive experience in the business
world, has been hired to fill the
newly created role of ACBL in-house
counsel. As a full-time employee,
Dunn is part of the executive
management team at Headquarters
in Horn Lake MS. Among other
responsibilities, she assumes the
duties formerly performed by League
Counsel Peter Rank, who is retiring
following the Summer NABC.
Robert Hartman, ACBL’s chief
executive officer, said he and the management team
are pleased to have someone with Dunn’s experience
and knowledge helping the organization move
forward. “We are very pleased to have Linda on
board,” Hartman said.
Dunn’s experience encompasses large firm and inhouse legal practices, business planning and financial
analysis as well as business management. She is a
“triple Crimson”: She earned a bachelor’s degree
in psychology and social relations from Harvard
University, a law degree from Harvard Law School
and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
She recently received her master of laws degree
from The John Marshall Law School in Chicago.
Dunn learned to play bridge during high school in
Memphis TN and continued to play during her college
years.

GNT finals today
The final round of all four flights of the Grand
National Teams takes place today.
In the Championship Flight, Martel (D21) meets
Merblum (D25). Martel won its semifinal match
against Stoltz (D20) 123-74, while Merblum won in
two quarters by defeating Smith (D1) 121-37.
In Flight A, Prairie (D6) battles Gao (D19).
Prairie topped Pike (D23) 128-103 in the semifinal,
and in the other bracket, Gao defeated Stein 143-46
in three quarters.
The Flight B title will be decided in the allCalifornia match between Chokriwala (D23) and
Wilson (D22). Chokriwala came back from a 60-IMP
halftime deficit against Beecher (D13) to advance
135-127, while Wilson easily handled Anderson (D7)
181-102.
The Flight C final features Chang (D22) vs.
Huang (D21). Chang narrowly defeated Thorstad
(D7) in the semifinal, 92-84, and Huang stayed in
control against Nitschelm (D25) to win 130-87.
Egyptians lead LM Pairs
Ahmed Hussein and Tarek Sadek, both of Cairo,
Egypt, start play today on the final day of the von
Zedtwitz Life Master Pairs with a lead of 4.63
matchpoints on a top of 47.
Right behind them are Jeff Meckstroth and Eric
Rodwell, who dropped into the event after their team
lost in the quarterfinal round of the Grand National
Teams Championship Flight.
Bernstein-Baron lead
Bruce
Robert Bernstein of Albuquerque NM and Jay
Barron of Tulsa OK lead the Bruce LM-5000 Pairs
after yesterday’s semifinal round. In second are Bruce
Luttrell and Barbara Luttrell of San Jose CA.
Californians lead Young
Charles Riffle of Emerald Hills CA and Douglas
Grant of San Francisco lead the pack of semifinalists in
the Young 0-1500 Pairs. They are followed by Texans
Robert Schmidt and Ari Sippola, while New Yorkers
Sharon Ainspan and Jacqueline Chang are third.
Gong, Wu lead
10K Pairs
fairly early from the four-day WSOP event which
began on a Friday, Towner figured he would have
plenty of time to join his team for the knockout event
which began on Tuesday. When Towner surprisingly
made it to the final of the poker tournament (a feat
that guarantees a six-figure payout), his teammates
were forced to find a substitute for the first two
rounds of the Bracket 1 KO in Long Beach, and
they picked up Phil Clayton of Huntington Beach
CA. They hoped to survive to the second day of the
contest on Wednesday when Towner could join them.
They succeeded in this task while excitedly watching

Laguna Niguel, Wu from Irvine. In second with two
sessions to play are Robert Katz, Ann Arbor MI, and
Robert Cappelli, Sanibel FL.

JUST FOR NEW PLAYERS
For this tournament, the anecdotes you’re used to
seeing at the beginning of the column are replaced
by a Quick Tip at the end. Enjoy.
Two ways to play
By Brent Manley
Take a look at the back page of this publication
to learn about the many opportunities to play
bridge in the Intermediate/Newcomer games. If you
include midnight
games – these are
not I/N games,
but you won’t find
many experts in
those contests – you
can play practically
all day long. That’s
assuming you have
the inclination and
the stamina.
I would guess
that the majority of
you are happy to play a couple of sessions a day.
Most I/N offerings are pairs games. If you already
have a partner, you are set. Just buy your entry, grab
a couple of convention cards and find your table. If
you don’t have a partner, you should head for the
Partnership Desk in Exhibit Hall A near where the
I/N games are played.
It’s likely you know this already, but for those
who need a refresher, here’s how you get your
scores in pairs games.
It’s all about comparisons.
Say you are playing East-West, starting at table
one. You are East-West pair 1. In a nine-table game,
you will play 27 boards in nine rounds. Each board
will be played nine times. When the session is
completed, your scores on each of the boards will
be compared to the scores achieved on those boards
by the other eight pairs sitting East-West in your
section.
For each comparison, you can earn one
matchpoint. If you do better on a board than
six of the other pairs who played it, you get six
matchpoints. If your score is the same as two other
pairs, you get one-half matchpoint per board for the
ties – i.e., one matchpoint.
In this scenario, you would get seven
matchpoints: six for beating the scores of six other
pairs and one for tying two others. If your score
on the board had been better than all the other
East-West pairs who played it, you would have
earned eight matchpoints. That is the maximum,

♣—
East opens 1♣ in third seat and you overcall
5♦. There must be a better way to bid this hand, but
you can’t figure out what it is. Everybody passes
and West leads the ♣K. You don’t catch much of a
dummy, but hang in there, think positively and plan
the play.
How does playing a 9% contract grab you?
also known as a “top.” If you had a bidding
misunderstanding, got doubled and went minus
1100, you could count on getting a “bottom,” or
“zero.”
For the session, this process is repeated for
each board you played. If the top score on a board
is eight and you played 27 boards, the maximum
number of matchpoints available is 216. Average
– exactly half of the available matchpoints – is
108. If you have a good game and score, say,
135 matchpoints, you and your partner would be
credited with a 62.5% game. Congratulations! You
might well win the event with that score.
Note that you don’t have to come up with huge
scores to earn tops. If your score is the best on a
particular board, you don’t have to go plus 1400 for
doubling the opponents in a bad contract. Scoring
plus 110 when everyone else is plus 90 would earn
you the same top. Similarly, you can earn a top with
a minus score, even a seemingly big one. Say you
and partner bid 5♣ over the opponents’ vulnerable
4 ♠ contract. They double and you go down three
tricks for minus 500 (you are not vulnerable). If the
opponents can make plus 620 and East-West at all
the other tables let them play it, you would have the
lowest minus and thus the best score.
The comparison aspect of pairs play means
overtricks are important even in routine contracts.
It’s not unusual for players to risk their contracts
for that precious overtrick. Until you gain more
experience, it’s best to concentrate on making your
contract.
Tomorrow: team games
That’s what your
chances are. You
must lose two spades
tricks, so you can’t
afford to lose a heart
trick. It’s time to use
your imagination and
place the opponents’
cards exactly as you
need them and then
play for that layout.
It’s called a positive
assumption. It is also
called “thinking big” and “needing a miracle.” How
would you place the opponents’ cards to make 5♦?
A good start would be to assume that East has
♥K x x (18%), the only lie of the suit that doesn’t
produce a loser. Even so, you would need to take
two heart finesses, so you need two dummy entries.
Well, wish upon another star. Wish that West has
the ♦8 so you can lead a diamond to the 7 to gain
a second dummy entry. And don’t forget to ruff
the opening lead with the 9 (or an honor). You
want to make sure you have two dummy entries in
diamonds if West has the ♦8.
Because finesses work only 50% of the time,
you are now playing a 9% contract. As sad as
this is, it is still better than playing a zero percent
contract.
When you are in a desperation contract,
envision a winning layout and go for it! Play to
make! Miracles happen. The full deal:

Quick Tip
Using your scores and the hand records, you
can learn about the strengths and weaknesses of
your game. For example, consider the belowaverage scores on your convention card. Did
your side declare or defend on those boards? Do
the same checks for your good scores: offense or
defense? Hand records can help with your postgame analysis. A review might help you avoid
opening leads that give away tricks right off the bat
or help you figure out how you should have played
a particular contract to improve the result. Be sure
to do your reviews as a partnership.

Convention card reminder
Each player is required to have a convention
card filled out legibly and on the table throughout a
session. The convention card must include the first
and last name of each member of the partnership, and
the cards must be identical.
If a director determines that neither player has
a substantially completed card, the partnership may
play only the Standard American Yellow Card and
may use only standard carding. This restriction may
be lifted only at the beginning of a subsequent round
after convention cards have been properly prepared
and approved by the director. Further, the partnership
will receive a 1/6-board matchpoint penalty for each
board played, commencing with the next round and
continuing until the restriction is lifted. In IMP team
games, penalties shall be at the discretion of the
director.
If the director determines the partnership has at
least one substantially completed convention card
but has not fully complied with ACBL regulations,
the director may give warnings or assign such
penalties as he deems to be appropriate under the
circumstances.
The objective of these warnings and penalties is
the encouragement of full compliance with ACBL
regulations.

How good is your response structure to weak
two-bids? After 2♥ - Pass – 2NT, you would like to
be able to show a spade feature and a non-minimum.
Then maybe Exclusion Key Card Blackwood 5♣ gets
you to 7♥.
On this deal from the second qualifying session
of the von Zedtwitz Life Master Pairs, we didn’t get
the chance.
North, a friend of mine who has struggled with
eye problems, opened the North hand 3♣. Yes, she
had a spade in with her clubs – she claimed. Even so,
you wonder why you would open 3♣, but that’s not
my problem. The bidding went this way:
West
North
East
South
3♣ Pass
5♣
Dbl

5♥ Pass
?
It was all I could do to gamble out 6♥ as West. I
really didn’t want to direct the spade lead.

Dunn’s career goal had always been in law, so she
signed up for a joint degree program in business and
law. The Harvard Business School offered guaranteed
admission – if she found a job in a field approved by
the school. That led her to a two-year stint at Chase
Manhattan Bank, where she prepped to be a loan
officer dealing in forest products.
After two years in New York City, Dunn returned
to Boston and the business school. She completed that
degree in 1982 and re-applied to Harvard Law School.
“I got on the wait list and never got off,” she says.
While waiting, she worked for the business school
in minority admissions, traveling the country for a
year recruiting talented students. That was followed
by four and a half years working for the American/
National Can Co. in Greenwich CT.
Dunn left the can company and went to work for
Chemical Bank, now JP Morgan Chase, analyzing
credit card for profitability.
With her eye on a chief financial officer
position, she decided she needed more experience in
management. At a career-building seminar, she had an
epiphany. “They told me to do what I wanted to do.”
That was music to the ears of an aspiring attorney.
Ten years after her first re-application to Harvard
Law, Dunn tried again. This time, she stood out
because of her experience and the fact that she was
a decade older than most applicants. She started in
1991 and earned her law degree in three years. “I
always wanted to be a lawyer,” she says. “It goes
back to making things work with people and solving
problems. Problem solving attracted me.”
The law, she says, “is what I was meant to do. I’m
like the trusted advisor who helps people get things
done the right way.”
Dunn worked for a law firm in New York City for
six and a half years. She left when she realized she
was not going to make partner in the firm. In 2001,
she joined the Carver Bancorp staff in Harlem as
general counsel. Three years later, she became general
counsel at Harley-Davidson Financial Services, then
worked as corporate counsel for the grocery chain
Winn Dixie. In 2010, she semi-retired and returned to
school, earning a degree in estate planning with the
idea of going into business for herself.
Dunn was living in Chicago, teaching and playing
bridge, when she picked up a copy of the Bridge
Bulletin and saw that ACBL was seeking an in-house
attorney. “It’s the perfect combination of my passion
for work and my passion for play,” she says. A bonus
is the chance to reconnect with her family in the
Memphis area.
Her bridge career started in high school. Her
mentor in bridge was a talented local player named
Lila Dumas. “She liked me because I was smart,”
Dunn recalls. “We used to play during free period.”
Dunn also played in college, but her business career
made it difficult to continue with the game until
recently.
Dunn is now back as a player and excited about
the future. “I’m about to embark on another challenge,
working with interesting and exciting people to help
another business grow – and I love bridge.”

Towner’s progress in Vegas online.
After Towner’s victory in the WSOP on Tuesday
night, he was so excited he couldn’t sleep.
“I was so wired, I stayed up all night,” Towner
said, who nevertheless booked a 6:30 a.m. flight to
Long Beach to play in the KO. Towner and company
went on to win the event, yet Towner’s golden run
was not over. For an encore, the squad entered the
Bracket 1 KO that began on Thursday and won that
one, too. The four players topped the masterpoint
leader list in Long Beach.
“It was a magical week for me,” said Towner,
who is in DC this week to play in the NABC.

Psyching is an integral part of the game. You
shouldn’t do it too much, especially in a regular
partnership, but when a psychic bid works it can
be devastating, as illustrated by this deal from the
second qualifying session of the von Zedtwitz Life
Master Pairs.

West, faced with nothing but ugly choices,
started with a diamond, thus doing better than the
Bulletin editor who selected a dramatic ♠K! Declarer
was not tested after the diamond lead and he worked
out to take the spade finesse for an impressive plus
430. Yes, plus 400 would have achieved the same
result. That was Valio Kovachev at work. Beware the
Bulgarians!
Notice to players
Each player must have an ACBL convention
card filled out and on the table. Please note that
other types of convention cards, such as the WBF
convention card or homemade cards that do not

On this deal from the first qualifying session of
the von Zedtwitz Life Master Pairs, South led the
♣K. The best play in 4♥ might be to take diamond
ruffs early, but declarer got greedy and played three
rounds of spades at once, pitching dummy’s club. I
could ruff and it looked obvious to play a club. When
declarer ruffed and led a trump, the defenders can
win and kill the discard with a fourth spade. Declarer
has to ruff high, then play three rounds of diamonds,
ruffing in hand. But whatever declarer does next,
North can ruff high and return a trump, killing
declarer’s ruff and leaving him with a diamond loser.
For the record, Brad Coles did make the contract
at trick six by playing on diamonds . He ruffed the
third diamond and was overruffed. Back came a
spade and Coles ruffed high in dummy. North pitched
a diamond. This was the position:

Coles had a complete count of South hand as
5=1=2=5, so he ruffed a diamond low and when this
could not be overruffed he gave up just one trump to
claim his contract.
Have you noticed the slip on defense? North
should have played back a low trump at trick five
for his partner to lead a fourth spade. North can later
overruff a black suit and play back a trump to kill the
second diamond ruff.

Thrill of victory,
agony of defeat
Jeff Alexander of Mentor OH reported a sad tale
to the Daily Bulletin office yesterday. It seems that he
and his wife, Stephanie, played in the von Zedtwitz
Life Master Pairs on Friday, and the duo had an
incredible set in the first session, scoring 65%. They
were second overall.
The second session, however, was not quite as
good. The Alexanders managed to put together a 33%
game to finish dead last in the session.
They did not qualify.
Teachers and club managers can gain a better understanding of the seminar and presentation details.
If you wish to be accredited, you must complete the following two requirements:
♠ Serve as a Table Mentor at a LBIAD seminar ♠ Attend a two-hour LBIAD Teacher Training event
Teacher Training includes information on organizing and marketing LBIAD, maximizing retention, writing grant requests and seminar presentation.
A light meal will be provided 6-6:30 p.m. To register, or if you have questions, please contact Patty Tucker at patty@whirlwindbridge.com.
Fee: $75 (If you wish to purchase a LBIAD license within 30 days of accreditation, $50 of the $75 fee will be applied to the first-year license fee.)

Daily Bulletin
Hollman is Grand
Life Master
Robert Hollman, retired shopping center
developer and winner of the 2007 Baze Senior
Knockout Teams, surpassed
10,000 masterpoints to
become a Grand Life Master.
The masterpoints that put him
over the top were earned at
duplicate club in his home
town, Santa Barbara CA.
Hollman took up
duplicate in 2000 after
scaling back his business
activity. He had played country club bridge before
taking lessons from the late Alan LeBendig and
becoming hooked on duplicate.
In winning the championship that qualified him
for Grand LM, Hollman and Bruce Ferguson played
with Brenda Keller and Dennis and Jerry Clerkin.
In 2006, Hollman was captain of teams that made
it to the semifinals of the Vanderbilt Knockout Teams
and the Spingold Knockout Teams, two of ACBL’s
premier events.

All Pass
(1) Weak.
(2) Leaping Michaels: diamonds and hearts.
North-South arrived in 6♥, and the success of the
contract hinges on finding the trump queen.
East led to ♠K to North’s ace, and declarer played
a trump to dummy’s ace, both defenders following.
When a low heart is played from dummy, West
follows low. Should declarer finesse or play for the
drop?
Blindly using guidelines such as “Eight ever,
nine never” is a rather lazy approach to thinking
about suit layouts such as this. The bidding tells
declarer that East has spade length, meaning there are
less available spaces in the East hand for heart length,
making the finesse a more attractive proposition.
More precisely, the 2♠ preempt suggests that East
has six spades and that West, therefore, has four. This
two-card difference means that declarer should take
the hook in trumps.
That’s exactly the line Susan took, and she was
rewarded with this layout:
♠A9
♥KJ53
♦K65
♣Q973
♠ 8 7 6 4
♠KQJ532

After drawing trumps, declarer conceded the ♦A
and claimed.

Unless otherwise noted: Stratified events are: A (3000+), B (1500-3000), C (0-1500). Strati-flighted Open events are: A/X (5000+/0-5000); separate from B/C (1500-3000/0-1500); D (0-750). Gold Rush
events are: (500-750/200-750/0-200). Gold points for 0-750.

events nor the Bracketed B Teams, no player with more than 750 may play in Gold Rush events, and no player with more than 300 may play in 299er events.
BOLD, UPPER CASE = NABC+ events. UPPER CASE = NABC events.
