Congratulations to the Hemant Lall team (Lall-Milner, Diamond-Platnick, Hamman-Weichsel) on winning the 4th running of the USBF's JLall online team event on Monday, June 21st. Lall had finished second in the Retrievers Round Robin Division, beat the Bitterman Team by 35 in the Round of 16, the Gupta Team by 1 (those overtricks do sometimes matter!) in the Quarterfinal, the Joel Team by 24 in the Semifinal, and the Clayton Team by 44 in the Final.
After live events, we usually manage to corral the winning team for a team photo, but with an online event, all we can do is combine 6 individual photos:
Hemant Lall Reese Milner John Diamond
Brian Platnick Bob Hamman Peter Weichsel
To accommodate some players with difficult schedules, play in the Final of JLall online teams #4 will start an hour later than originally scheduled. First half kibitzing times will also be an hour later. Second half kibitzing times will remain the same (we know they're already late for people on the East Coast). Schedule is:
First Quarter starts at 1:30 EDT; kibitzing starts at 2:00 EDT
Second Quarter starts at 3:40 EDT; kibitzing starts at 4:10 EDT
Third Quarter starts at 6:10 EDT; kibitzing starts at 7:10 EDT
Fourth Quarter starts at 8:15 EDT; kibitzing starts at 9:15 EDT
