Interesting bit of Syd info

I have a friend who's a member of a bridge tournament club. They have registries of all the members of all the different clubs in different locations. Syd is apparently really, really good. Here's his profile:

NAME Roger Barrett
COUNTRY United Kingdom
BRIDGE CLUB [I deleted this for privacy reasons]
MASTERPOINTS 3,200 (Gold Life Master)

So apparently Syd's been playing loootts of bridge because my friend said "he either plays every day or has been playing since the last ice age if he has that many points!"

Let's just hope there's not a conspiracy by the players to kick him out of the club.

Re: Interesting bit of Syd info

I wonder what they would do if he drifted into a catatonic state during a game?

Yes.

That's quite an impressive statistic in your signature, rcmno31. My personal record is only about 31 hours.
