We had a new sequence to an unusual final contract last night.

 

1NT (1) 2 (2)

2 (3) 2 (4)

2 (5) 4 (6)

4NT (7) 5NT (8)

Pass (9)

 

(1) 15-17

(2) 5-card Stayman

(3) no 5-card major

(4) 4 hearts (or some 5-5 majors), F1

(5) 4 spades, not 4 hearts

(6) 4 hearts, 4 clubs, no singleton or void, slam interest

(7) minimum, no club fit

(8) Are you sure you are really minimum?

(9) Yes, I am 4243 with no useful pips

 

This was exactly the right spot (10 top tricks plus a 100% double squeeze for 11), but sadly made an overtrick with a very favourable lie.

 

We want brownie points for accurate non-hindsight bidding
