Here is a news about Turkey's point of view: Turkey proposes the formation of a Caucasian union to resolve conflicts

Not sure if this is reported but there seems to be a bug in the vugraph version of bboflash (bbotv.com/vugraph). While kibbing a table, if you click the rectangle showing the running score (left bottom in the green area), the right frame (that shows detailed results) turns to a blank white frame, and it can't be restored unless you logoff and rejoin. This both happens in IE and firefox browsers. In the regular version, there's no problem when you click that rectangle, it shows the other table's results.

Did you try BBO flash version http://www.bridgebase.com/ (edited url - uday)

we played our best game in the tourney, losing this way hurts so much. maybe this boils down to the saying "those who live by the sword, die by the sword" anyway we're proud of our team for their resilience and the excitement they brought.

This is from today's Cayne team match. [hv=d=s&v=n&n=sqt63ht72dk952c84&s=saj98ha4dajt64caj]133|200|Scoring: IMP 1♦-(DBL)-2♦-(2♥) 2♠-pass-3♠-pass 4♠-a.p.[/hv] ♥ K 2 3 4 ♣ T 4 K A ♠ 9 2 3 7 ♠ 8 K 6 ♣7 ♣ Q 8 3 J ♥ 8 T J A ♠ J 4 T ♥5 ♠ A 5 Q ♣5 ♦ 4 3 K 7 ♦ 2 8 ? Do you play J or go up with A? Another way to ask the question, do you play west hand for Kxxx KQx x QTxxx or Kxxx KQx Qx QTxx ?

sorry about being fanatic but goooooooooooooooooooooooooooolllllllllllllll :D http://www.euro2008.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Photo/competitions/EURO/71/89/64/718964_w2.jpg

Click options, then profile tab, there's a checkbox at the bottom that says "Allow other members to see your profile". If this is unchecked, "no information available" is displayed to other users.

I don't open. what discourages me is 11 count with bad suit, no shortness, and we're vul.

as south I'd bid 1nt, then north bids 3nt ... but wait, west leads spade and I'd go down and lose more imps B) I think south's dbl is wrong, not a huge hand and don't have enough support for spades. north's response to dbl is wrong too, should bid 2♥ with 11 hcp. pass of 1♥ is correct.

we've already played trump ace at the second trick? so we have no communication to dummy at this point. How about percentage play to win 1 trick in this spade combination? finesse ♦J, ♦, play ♠ to K, if loses to A , cross to ♣A, play ♠ to J? loses only if RHO has ♠AQ (~75%). I think this is too simple probably there is a better line, however I can't see anything else against perfect defense :)

Since I was kibbing the vugraph I can't answer without influence. This deal made me happy to be awake at 5am. I hear that 3♥ bid is misalerted at the table and director will adjust the board!! Candidate for the most interesting deal of the year :P

Depends on style, but I don't agree with 1♦ opening, especially at this vul. I think 4♣ better than 3♣. Even if partner is minimum, You may make slam if p doesn't have any wasted value in clubs (AQxx, Ax, Kxxx, xxx). I don't understand last pass by N,( felt guilty of opening? sleeping?)
