How Many Boards?
While most prefer a straight 24 board match, the Space Cadets
prefer the "Triple 10 - 4" formula. Why
not play two halves of 10 boards each and then, if neither team leads by more
than 10 IMPs, play 4 boards of "overtime"? In this way, close matches
are even more exciting with both teams knowing the exact score going into those
critical last 4 boards. And, if it is a blowout, we can all log off early and get some sleep!
