I mostly play bridge online and benefit from the STaC days and online sectionals. My dad and I also play in the local regionals and sectionals when I am not working and have available time. Overall I think the diversity of tournaments and local games is quite good. It is fairly expensive and I hope prices of games do not continue to go up indefinitely! I think having more of the “complete these online boards within the next 24 hours” type of tournaments would be helpful for someone young and working like myself. I do not have time in middle of the day to play in the local weekly sanctioned games.
