I was thinking about this eariler. I hope he does that.

2♣ is terrible. I wouldn't have bid 3♠ with your hand. Raise with support.

A curtain card is a very, very bad thing. A curtain card is a little bit of card on which the hand is written (written in by the players if the cards are hand-dealt, printed if the cards are pre-dealt). I am not sure of their precise purpose, though when they are in use all players diligently check to make sure the cards in their hand match the cards written on the curtain-card. Basically, a curtain card is an accident waiting to happen. I'll also be the dummy. How is it ever possible that the result of a mistake on the curtain card would be that the board "could not be played"?

Had my first wok fire the other night. I guess it was too hot when I added some oil to start cooking. You'll be happy to know that all the smoke detectors in my house work perfectly well.

serious? we all miss foo and shubi.

spite passes of partner's slam tries are a good way to disrupt partnership harmony.

I think bidding slams with 8-card fits requires a lot more judgment than bidding those with 9-card fits. Don't make the easy slams harder to bid.

Don't forget to fork lefty, just in case.

old people are clumsy and uncoordinated imo

2♣ the first time. If the auction doesn't change after that, Pass.

How new to bridge are you, bab9? Are you genuinely interested in improving your bridge or just interested in learning entertaining and obscure new gadgets?

Hidden:

3♥ splinter. Second choice 2NT limit+, 3rd choice 5♦. Unlike some others, I'm worried we could be missing slam with a 5♦ bid.

bid 1♠ the first time and you dont have this problem

♠Q seems normal

I find this thread both interesting and educational.

Sure. Is that terrible?
