A POTY Event

IMP Pairs Game

Come experience the scoring system used in the prestigious Cavendish event…

• IMP Pairs is a Pairs Game event with IMP scoring

• Beginning November 9, then December 14, January 11, February 8, March 8, April 12…
  

• American Legion Hall in Creve Coeur   (same site as 8 is Enough)

• Game time is 6 p.m.

• Unit game payout on Master Points.

• POTY points awarded

An IMP Pairs event is played like a regular pairs event,

but is scored in a totally different way.

• A basic score is set for each board - an average of all the scores compiled on that board.

• ACBL Score eliminates the top and bottom scores before the average is taken so that extreme scores will have less impact on the average.

• Then your score is compared with the average and translated into IMPs, as if you were playing in a Swiss Team event.

• If you bid and make your games and slams, overtricks and undertricks don’t carry as much weight as in a Matchpoint Game.
