A couple of weeks ago, I felt terribly discouraged because my partner and I ended up in last place three consecutive times at the Duplicate Bridge Club. But now in the past week, we have finished in 3rd place last Saturday and 4th place yesterday. Of course, I felt thrilled. It wasn’t 1st place, but much better than last.
At the same time you have to wonder what makes the difference. Obviously my skill level hasn’t changed in such a short time. Nor is it the cards dealt to me, as in duplicate bridge everyone else play with the exact same cards. Thus, it seems the only explanation is luck. For example, the mistakes others make, provide a lucky advantage.
I’ll probably never figure it out, but it sure feels great to be among the winners.
