What a hand!!!!
When we pick up the cards we hope to have a good hand. Unfortunately this doesn't always happen and we sometimes end up with the opposite!
For this new site here is the start of a sequence of good.... and not so good hands. These hands will change as progressively better or worse hands are encountered.
You may wish to let us know of your best... or worst hand.
The hand from 14th December 2004 was:
Clubs........7 6 4 2
Diamonds..8 2
Hearts.....10 3 2
Spades....10 7 3 2
A total pip count of 66.
The following hand was picked up by East on 18th January 2005.
Clubs........9 3 2
Diamonds..9 5 4
Hearts.....9 6 4
Spades....8 6 5 3
Although the pip count of 73 is higher than 14th December, it is a Yarborough!
The following Yarborough, with a pip count of 68, was dealt to poor West on 5th April 2005.
