Artur & Jack |
The biggest duplicate in the club calendar took place on Tuesday the 9th of December. This exciting 24 board event attracted big names from the UK and overseas. After a superb buffet every competing pair was auctioned off to the highest bidder with all the money going into the prize pool. The "Owner" of the winning pair Jack Mizel and Artur Malinowski (63.5%) scooped a handy £5,600. Luckily the winners had the sense to buy themselves! In addition to the auction pot (split between the first four pairs) prizes were awarded for 5th to 8th place. |
