HI, I am looking for a regular easy-going and relaxed partner for fun play and to improve our skills. I am at the intermediate level but haven't played for many years so I need practice to regain and improve skills. I live in the province of Quebec, in the EST, am bilingual and like to chat during play. Would also like to play in tourneys with partner. I am available for an hour or 2 at night and can also play during weekends. If you feel we can be a pair, let me know! B)

I'm in EST, am often on for a bit in the evening, including weekends. I'm not generally available during the day on weekends, but occasionally pop in for a bit.

I'm a low intermediate who is currently trying to pla a natural SAYC system with as few gadgets as possible. My goal is to really understand the basic system before I clutter it up.

If you're interested in playing a few hands together, feel free to look for me. I'm vuroth on BBO.

Still decidedly intermediate - don't take my guesses as authoritative.

This is one of the most sensible posts I have read in the BBF for ages.

SAYC has a predetermined number of gadgets, no more, no less. Anything else is some other variant of "Standard American", but it's not "Standard American Yellow Card".

Also, some would say that a "natural SAYC system" is an oxymoron.

because SAYC is artificial? or because SAYC is no system?
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.
