The old record holder for the largest ever
Regional Bridge Tournament in ACBL history is the new record
holder for the largest ever Regional Bridge Tournament in ACBL
history with an astounding total of 7424 tables over the 6-1/2
day event. There were players from 44 states, the District of Columbia, Canada, Mexico and from several non ACBL affiliated foreign countries. Twenty ACBL districts were represented by the total of 3223 players who played at least one session. Masterpoints flowed, with a grand total of over fifty nine thousand being awarded to 3098 players. There were sixty one players who won one hundred or more points and an amazing 274 players topped the fifty masterpoint level. The median for all players who won masterpoints was 10.62 points. We crowed over twenty five new life masters and there were many other players who moved up one or more ranks in the masterpoint hierarchy during the week. See below for photos of some of the new life masters.
