Sun, 03-Jul-2022 | Dan's on holiday for a bit! | |
Hope you made time to join this week's - “Case for the Defense” session. Dan is off for a summer break, but will return soon with more great defense lessons. Dan Oakes has been involved in duplicate bridge since the late 1980s. He owned the Bridge Center of North Orange County (now Anaheim Bridge Club) when it hosted 10 games a week, and he has lectured at local regional tournaments in southern California and taught individual and small group lessons. He is also a former tournament director and ACBL employee, having directed tournaments up to and including the national level. Away from the bridge table, he is a magician member of Hollywood's famous Magic Castle, a boxing historian, and a former attorney. He enjoys reading, writing, chess, and playing the guitar really badly. Please watch for Dan's return and join us on for more excellent defense lessons. "Case for the Defense" sessions will continue after Dan's break and still at the same day and time - Friday, 10:00 AM Pacific time (1300 NewYork,1700utc, 7pm Paris, 10:30pm New Delhi), Session will be held in IAC room and using Zoom for voice. https://tinyurl.com/BabsBridge July 1st 2022 Lesson recording can be accessed at the IAC Youtube site: https://youtu.be/LZH0pOHVf40 All previous recordings for the IAC Club can be accessed at: https://www.youtube.com/c/IAC-BBO Many thanks the Babs (Babsg) for taking the time to record these sessions every week!
