JEC #4 - Board 1

[Phil]

I thought the match started quietly.

Timo did well in the play and this felt like a slight plus position for us.

 

However, some fireworks happened at the other table:

Giorgio made an aggressive balance, pushing his side to the three level when JEC hadn't shown any values.

 

Personally, I am not a fan of Gnasher's 2♠'s. There's plenty of self-criticism I will have later, so I don't mind saying this and trying to keep things objective, which is the reason that we are here. :)

 

By the way, I am cut / pasting this from Lin files. If any mods can tell me how to increase the size, I would really appreciate it.

I also dont understand the 2S.
