It is indeed thank you. Conor

Can anyone who played the SIM pairs on Monday ( or not)help me with a ruling. Board 24. Bidding is P, P 1S with 8 HCP and adding the two longest suits only makes 17. No where near the 19/20 I think are needed. Is this a psyche bid? If so, what colour is it? The rest of the bidding went 1NT P 3NT PP X from W. It can make but it didn’t turning a possible top into a bottom.

Hi, Can you help. I was directing tonight. W opens 1C, announced as could be short as two. N/S end up in 2D. W plays his SINGLETON club. E playing the A and another for.a ruff! N/S cry foul. My ruling was that the bid was explained properly and matched the convention they play. W May have bid incorrectly but has misled P too. Unfair though it sounds no redress. Am I right or wrong?
