Paulsson must be happy with
2nd place this year. Winning the
first three quarters of the CWTC Finals was not quite enough
to bring home the trophy for Helen Colter and her hardworking
team.

Bouchard wins the 2001 CWTC
Montreal, August 2001 - After a huge Round
Robin performance, Bouchard was barely able to flex their muscles
in the CWTC semi-finals against Fox when they were given their
semi-final match by forfeit. A nice evening off, hopefully somewhere
cool eh?
Paulsson and Marsch were not so lucky - they
had to play cards right up to the bitter end although after
their first quarter win by 11, Marsch never really challenged
the seasoned Colter, er, I mean Paulsson team. So it would be
Bouchard and Paulsson playing for the 'money'... or software!
GOTO Software presented copies of their new bridge software,
GOGO Bridge II, to the winners of the CNTC and CWTC.
Paulsson was the victor of the first two quarters
in the Finals of the CWTC, winning the first quarter by 6 and
the 2nd quarter by 11. Small steps that just might have taken
them to a big win - and a long-awaited title for Colter and
Foster who have been in this position before but it was not
to be!
Bouchard closed in on Paulsson during the 3rd
quarter, trailing by 8 and in the final stretch, vaulted past
winning the final quarter 35-11 and the Championship 164-148.
