The ladder had a big shake up this week as the draw contained matches where teams were generally 4 or 5 rungs apart. This was necessary in order to avoid having too many repeat matches.
The big match was the leaders, First Sun, up against the 5th placed Snakes. Aggressive game bidding by the Snakes on boards 3 and 4 saw a double game swing and a vulnerable swing to net 27 imps and effectively end the contest. First Sun fought on well but the Snakes ended their reign of 3 weeks at the top win a 46-25 win.
Central Climbers have risen to the second rung with a good win against Aussie Flavoured. It seems that their alternate name of Central Celler Dwellars will no be required. This team seems to have finally struck form with some being unkind enough to suggest that it was no co-incidence that tarakiwi was at the rugby last night!
In previous weeks, despite the reverse grid, lower runged teams have really struggled to beat their higher ranked opponents. The week The Masters were the only team to fend off the challenge from below. In a very close match the 13 imps exchanged on board 4 proved decisive. A very difficult 6nt was available. Tuckaway and Mastersg signed off in 5nt. Buch99 and Clarkson bid 6nt at the other table but buch99 couldn't quite bring it in. The Masters survived 25-21.
The previously unlucky Western Gals scored a 43-4 win against Trans Global. The board of that match being a grand slam bid and made by jenter62 and blinkers. Blinkers has been unwell and out of action for the past 8 weeks but she seems to have lost none of her edge. Trans Global have done a sterling job in the last 6 weeks to remain in the top four but are now unlucky to find themselves crashing all the way to the bottom on the strenth on one loss. Whoever plays them next week should be wary!

First Sun fights off Masters
First Sun remains at the top of the ladder after a bloody battle with the Masters where both sides inflicted heavy casualties. A mere 102 imps changed hands over the 12 boards. Typical of the cut and thrust were boards 2 and 12. On board 2 First Sun extended their lead by 16 imps when they bid to a making 6 clubs while the Masters signed off in a non making 5nt. Some revenge was had on board 12 however when First Sun opened a 3 way multi at favourable vul. LHO overcalled 3h and responder pre-empted to the hilt with 3 spades and 3 points! 4th in hand thought he could beat this with his 11 count and AQTx in spades. He found the double button. Now opener who, of course, had the strong minor option, couldn't be sure what was going on and passed. First Sun did well to make 3 tricks but this was 18 imps out. Interestingly 18 on the last board was still not enough and the result of the carnage was 57-45 to First Sun.
Kiwi Teams had only its second ever draw last night as Western Gals tried to fight their way off bottom rung against the Snakes. I've mentioned before that Western Gals are the unluckiest team in the competition and last night was no exception. They were 7 imps behind with two boards to go and managed to score exactly 7 on board 11. All they needed was something good to happen on board 12. With both dealers playing a strong 1nt that was the opening bid and the contract at both tables. Both leaders chose the Qh lead from xx QJTxx JTx Txx. This wrapped up the first 5 tricks at both tables and then declarer had 8 tricks on top! No chances of generating an imp there! The 31-31 all draw means that the Snakes not only held their position but they get to go up one place as Judy + North Shore drop a place because they haven't been able to play for two weeks. The Snakes are now in line to challenge for second or third on the ladder and with 3 weeks to go are a good bet to make it all the way to the top!
Other matches saw the higher placed teams grind out wins so that there was only the one change to the ladder. Next weeks draw will be interesting however as many of the higher ranked teams in the mid to lower ladder are due for a crack at teams in the top half.

First Sun see the light
Week four has seen our third new team climb to the top. This week First Sun (who have three members from Gisborne) will not only see the light first but will see it the brightest. They have displaced the Masters with a convincing 43-20 win. Congratulations to them.
The only other change to the ladder positions occured at the bottom end. The Central Climbers had spent the entire competition on the bottom rung and were so desparate they changed their name to Central Cellar Dwellers. This seemed to work as they had a 47-7 win over the Western Gals. The win was not as convincing as the scoreboard suggested. Central Climbers member cascade (aka Wayne Burrows) has done an analysis of some of the hands which suggests that Western Gals didn't do too much wrong on a lot of the hands where they lost imps. Go to http://newzealandbridge.blogspot.com/2008/08/kiwiteams-080813-few-hands.html to see Wayne's insightful analysis.
Spare a thought for Western Gals. They started at 6th on the ladder. The vagaries of the draw has seen them drawn against teams below them in all three rounds they have played. On the first two occasions they won against more fancied oponents. However, on the third occasion, when drawn against the bottom placed team and with the most to lose they couldn't repeat the feat. So, although they are now bottom placed team, they certainly don't deserve to be there.

Central Climbers Win
I thought I would celebrate the Central Climber's first win by posting a few hands from the match on another blog that I have just started. Since it turned into quite a long post I decided not to clog up Russell's announcements here.
You can have a look over herehttp://newzealandbridge.blogspot.com/2008/08/kiwiteams-080813-few-hands.html
Russell let me know if you would like this sort of thing posted here.

Masters Stay on Top
Round 3 of the Kiwi Teams Ladder event saw The Masters as the first team to hold off a challenge for the top spot. Aussie Flavoured were repelled with apparent ease. Further down First Sun moved up into third spot while further down again the Snakes started their move up the ladder by displacing the Mavericks. At the bottom, as always, the Central Climbers remained! Judy + North Shore proved too good for them this week. In a desparate effort to bring about a change in fortune the Central Climbers have decided to take up the suggestion of mastersg and change their name to the Central Sinkers! If you have any other suggestions for possible names please let us know by posting a comment! (Click on "comments" at the end of this article).
I have not noticed any particular hands of note this week but if you have one, or have anything else of interest please post a comment below. Cascade tells me that anyone can post a comment and I'm interested to see it in action.
