It seems that heart 3-3 is too easy. Probably W has Qxx in spade, two hearts and diamonds and AKQxxx in club and we has to estabilish diamond suit.
-
Ok, it how my idea one level before. Although about eventually squeeze perhaps you must consider heart and spade as unilaterals and club as indeterminate(=double) menace in a reciprocal equilibrate ending with club recessed.

Before seeing hand of ezyang i was thinking that the answere at preemptive (for me a 7th losers 7or 8 cards suit) cover by partner and probably with balanced points (remaining). If we have an hand adapt for 5♥ with possibilties in other suits ,why not ?

But seriuosly: after 5♦ showing longness and suit should not start rkb for diamond with 5♥ ? And the answer is not 6♣(=2 keys w/o Q) ? Then an eventual query for Kings could get to realize 7 NT.(Lovera)

how to bid this slam
Lovera replied to patroclo's topic in Intermediate and Advanced Bridge Discussion
If it is manteining 1♦ by E bidding should be : 3♦(=14-18 bal), 4♦(=minorwood)-4♠(=0-3 keys leaving same steps of RKB 1430), 5♣(=query for Q)-5♦(=no Q) and you must choise what to do, ciao. -
An hand like this (at Main Bridge Club)
Lovera replied to Lovera's topic in Interesting Bridge Hands
You are always (as Zelandakh) most quickly. Thanks for the hand (but how you can do it so quickly if i had not told data ?) that was my intention to post. I wonder myself to try a player with bot and willing try to play with these because in MSN i could not play i seat but immediatly it change with three players. The answer to my chat (it was probably a justify) was that hand was not good to try slam. But you can see that if in heart was K slam is (or if K is in W). The problem is that if it is a mistake bidding ok but not if one think to alterate information. Infact lucky i had a spade selfsupporting but partner bid not know it and what type of hand i had and it is better to leave bid yet to improve (in profile it was not seemed that partner did not know RKB 1430). I posted this hand also because it is of type Queen denial for King information ( http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/topic/41428-rkc-question-new-suit-after-queen-denial/page__view__findpost__p__853965 -
It is happened recently at MBC. I prefer and suggest enter at table via full table. You start as kib and can watch bidding and players and shapes untill anyone leave seat and you try to enter so to know better your partner and opp. However last time because i didn't want to wait i was choising a table open with bots. The hand i saw :AKQJxx in spade, QJ10xx in heart, A in diamond and K in club. I open with 1♠ and my partner immediatly raise (!) than i bid 4NT with alert 1430kb. The answer was 5♦ and than it being 0 keys i ended on 5♠ but when dummy was discovered i noted the A of heart chatting that answere must be 5♣ and that raise was with two spade only (?). Fourthemore when playing i was removed three times without an explanation and three times i got to re-enter in table to play and realize contract. The hand of partner: xx in spade, Axx in heart, Q10xxx in diamond and xxx in club.

I'm noting (and likeing) that 6-5 is on "fashion" these days (at me it's happened three times). About title i think not and this one can be a demonstration because actual point counting must be up-to-date (helping not as formouled). The hand at dd viewing from E values 31 points and with others controlls we are in grand zone. About bidding : p-2♣, 2♦-2♠, 3♥-4♦, 5♦ and proceding via cue bid you ought to get at grand but probably is better little slam (eventually +1) to avoid a surprise with this type of shape.(Lovera)

""The" end play of a hand-every hand- is a vague term meaning the play of the last few tricks. "An" endplay is a play belonging to the group known as squeezes, strips, and trump coups, or combinations thereof: this name is used because such plays usually occur toward the end of the hand."(From the Love text)

Need Help to Type Suit Symbols
Lovera replied to captyogi's topic in General Bridge Discussion (not BBO-specific)
I know that if you will generate the spade symbol you must do so : Sp is for spade and is put enter squared parenthesis ([..] ) substituing .. and genereting ♠. In the same way He means heart, Di is diamond and finally Cl for club suit. Then you probably must copy and past. I hope this can help, bye. -
Your turn, 4th level vul
Lovera replied to diana_eva's topic in Intermediate and Advanced Bridge Discussion
But to X these auction was not told to be a mistake (it needs sure that it dosen't get to realize). On these days i seen insted that anyone use to do it (i.e. 2♠ , X). Why ? -
Who's suit to show
Lovera replied to diana_eva's topic in Intermediate and Advanced Bridge Discussion
This situation (that i can call Michael by-passed) has become once to me: i open 1♣(=AKxxxx) and opp 1♥(=AKxxx), p, p, i rebid 2 ♣, p and my partner bids 3♥(=QJxxxxx), p,p, X, XX and i became to chat if nat (because i had seen other bidding of this type) without having answere than thinking to a S.O.S. bid 4 ♣ for one down. -
Althoug interviewed by Max Vilander and Arancha Sanchez has told that ends the season of play.

That is the Italian Region about Olives grooves and vineyards. And remaining on thema of people of Puglia i can suggest http://www.google.it/search?hl=it&redir_esc=&client=tablet-android-samsung&source=android-search-app&v=141278776&qsubts=1442072882205&action=devloc&q=Tenuta+Carrisi+%3Ai+vini+di+Albano+Carrisi famous singer that married Romina Power daughter of Tyron Power and Linda Christian that actually has gotten a reunion with Romina Power and their go round in tour (Atlantic City, Niagara Falls, in Spain) without forget Domenico Modugno (Volare) and Pietro Mennea (9":90 on 100 metres :its record remained for many years).

During the interview the speaker tells she was quoted about probabilities to win against Serena Williams 1:300 and her (laughing): Coach do you hear me ? Quanto ho vinto ?(How much i have won ?) The New York Herald titled that Roberta Vinci has changed the history of tennis referring to Williams that tried to win Grand Slam and also CNN (Incredible and shocking surprise). However the Williams sisters remaining both strong players (we had other two too Sara Errani and Francesca Schiavone for the Italian tennis).
-
The " La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno" newspaper of my cyty (Bari in Puglia) tiltled "Flavia and Roberta Queens of New York" and subtitled "Incredible but true : Puglia - Rest of the World 2-0". Infact Flavia Pennetta is from Brindisi while Roberta Vinci is from Taranto. And when on 3-3 (around 9:00) in the Athur Ashe Arenas starts a standing ovation (E adesso applaudite anche me, c***o) it is the apotheosys and Roberta Vinci realizes the street for this nice victory. I must admit rarely we can watch a type of play of so high level (Sorry guys, but today is my day). Let's enjoy.

Yes, it seems strange if you say that other times had had score. En passant :i have read your topic two times (togheter awn) and list of active content signed 0 wiews. Probably and if sub are already rules as you know, should be a thecnical explaining for this eventuality. (And also 0 replay to 8:43, bye)(Lovera)

As card lie and on hipothesys that clubs run(=three in W) my solution, because 6 is controlled by E, is right. Infact on last club the hearts will be eliminated from the table(=is the same to have extra longness in spade) and now we can lead ♠ A and little and W must return in diamond to rescue Queen of spade.
