olegru Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 I was under impression that question 3 is a quote of S.J. 'Skid' Simon but he is not in the list. :) here it is, page 7:http://books.google.com/books?id=mNeuZ3Mok...epage&q&f=false Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirate22 Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 "Tooning" TOON ingThis was overheard recently--we all as partnerships arrived at game or slam or part score's all DOOMED. however miracle's occur and all somehow miracleouslywe land an impossible contract.mainly because the defense got it wrong,Hence TOON "Tricks out of nowhere" and as an aside i hate partners that type in well done p (WDP)so happy tooning all----it does happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoi5 Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 60%. I thought the first one was easy and it wasn't what I expected... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 30% :rolleyes: I agree with Hanoi about the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cascade Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 70% I got #3 wrong - random guess it seems since the original appears to be Skid Simon and I had just purchased a second hand copy of his book today in book sale - not sure why since I already have at least one copy. And #1 for reasons similar to Hanoi. Not sure which other one I got wrong now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberlour10 Posted May 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 My source for question 1 was "Classic Bridge Quotes" by Jared Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFA Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 60%. Fun, but yeah the first one was dirty because of "Hamman's rule". :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanM Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 Chip and I together got 80%, but I would have gotten 3 right, and I knew to guess on 1 because of the comments, but guessed wrong :-). Funny, I hadn't heard any of the quotes and neither had Chip, but most of them just sounded like the person who said them :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenko Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 70% I would bet a good money that Hamman said "If 3NT is viable option –then bid it" - but I guess I would be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
