Have I got news for you?

Dear Bridge Player,

Major commotion in the European Bridge Championships in Pau.
And yet again it involves the Italian squad!

Angelini has not played in the Round Robin 2.

Here is why …. http://forums.bridgebase.com/index.php?showtopic=26120

Now for the really juicy stuff!

The RR2 match between Norway and Italy at the Europeans Championships was allegedly unpleasant at times.
Here is a Google translation of an article on the NBF website:http://tinyurl.com/6fcf93

However, remember that
-1. This is a literal translation with special Norwegian words even Google can’t interpret.
-2. This is how it happened as experienced by the Norwegian camp. We have not heard the Italian version.

More to follow!

Have a good game,
Rueful
