A Private Duplicate Score One good way to keep the private score is shown here. Writing a description of your opponents helps you to reconstruct the board later. I was sitting South. Boards 1-3 were played against Pair 4, a lady with glasses and red hair and her hubby Board 1: 4 S by South, making 5. Board 2: 2 NT by East, down 1. (I was dissatisfied with a bid I made here, and noted it.) Board 3: 6H by North, making. Boards 4-6 were played against two college kids. Board 4: 1 NT by West, making 2. Board 5: 4C by West, down 1. (Should have been down two but I made a terrible lead.) Board 6: 3S by South, making 4. (Wrote down my hand, don't think we bid enough.)
