Round Robin 7a, Boards 3, 7, 14 Table 1, Q-Plus Bridge v Bridge Baron

In the last round of the round robin Bridge Baron needed to win by 11 IMPs to tie Q-Plus Bridge for the semifinal KO qualifying position.

Boards 3 and 7 would have made the difference while board 14 did help, but it was not enough.
