Onward Mixed

The first session of the Mixed Pairs Final is in the record books.  Check out:

THE RESULTS

After the first round the leaders Yvonne Hernandez – Lu Kohutiak are listed as an American pair but I think they may actually be from Unionville Ontario not too far from where I live.  I noticed that they won the Red Ribbon pairs some time ago so this is a pair that has played together for a long time.   Also notable is that Karen Cumpstone playing with John Rayner is in eight place.  I have enjoyed playing with Karen from time to time on BBO and she has played on international teams a number of times.   Captain John captained the Women’s team I played on in Istanbul.   Kathy Sulgrove and Joaquin Pacareu are in second with Pam Miller and Jim Ramussen in third.  The Mixed Pairs and the Consolation (Mixed Plate) conclude tomorrow with two more sessions.

The Bulletin for Monday was already published by 11:30 EST (very efficient Bulletin staff).  According to the Bulletin John Kraynak playing with his mother Laurie who were leading the field with a huge score (66%) dropped out after Laurie became sick.  I hope she is feeling better soon and I send her my best wishes.

Laurie and
John Kranyak, who averaged 66% in the first two qualifying
sessions, did not play in the third after she became ill.
