Member Robin Ho teamed up with guest expert Ed Barnes to win the Swiss Pairs on Tue 26 July, ahead of directors Alan Davies and David Farmer, and visitors Margaret Foster and Patrick Neary. 

You can check the full results.

The Swiss Pairs followed a free pre-session talk by Ed Barnes on "Declarer play - Avoiding the hidden traps". This in turn followed his excellent one hour PBI workshop on "Passive defense - when and how to think about it" - and several hands in the Swiss Pairs benefited from the key points.
