This is a game of subtlety and skill played at the amateur and professional level all over the world and introduced by the Romans in 27ad. Of course Mornington Crescent tube station wasn't there then ... |

I've played Stillwell but I have no head for numbers and using a calculator is illegal under the Trellis Shunt rule so I got nowhere. Strictly a game for geeks! |

Sorry I didn't realize you were playing under Stobart's Protocol in that case I go Cockfosters. I've only played at the amateur level so please excuse any mistakes. I do have the rule book though. |

You can't open with Kenton under South Style rules as its on a diagonal. You would have to backdouble straight away which is just silly! |
