Hey...seems the vugraph went very well. A set where we did well vs the netherlands was broadcast thankfully :P Thanks for support :P and...the England u20 won the channel trophy :D was a tight affair though

3♣ looks forcing to me

I really dont like 2♣ with these types of hand. I have a poor suit that i dont neccessarily want lead and values in their suit. After 1♥ pass pass, probably 2♠-3♣-3♦-3NT/4♦ However, i know plenty of people who do bid 2♣ with the north cards, and over 3♦ (isnt this completely forcing?) 3NT or 4♦ could be right.

Im not sure there is much of a difference between whether it is pairs or an indy. Although you may be with a person you have played with a couple of times, in individuals i find that often partners dont take it seriously at all, and if they are someone who automatically thnks they are better than you because they class themselves as expert and you as advanced, often they will angle the bidding so they get to play the contract, which can lead to a poor result. Also i find that individuals are taken far less seriously and people are prone to doing more random things than with pairs. In pairs, although you have a person you have probably played with before, so have the opposition, thus the standard of bridge will be most likely sounder and perhaps pairs are a more accurate result, who knows..

Hopefully the vugraphing will be mainly the U25 teams....i dont want my U20 debut to go badly and be seen B)

At a recent event i held... ♠xx ♥xx ♦AKQJT ♣KQ9x 3♥ on your left (preemptive), pass pass to you....love all at teams, what are your choices and what would you do?

Recently i have been experimenting with swedish club. I havent been able to find many notes online but i know the basics of it, the opening structure and the basic continuations. I was wondering if anyone could direct me towards some notes on swedish club, but also whether anyone has a FD card for it? If not, may try and make one :)
