Quartic Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Playing online, I pick up a nice hand in 4th seat. After an odd (to say the least!) auction, I had to declare 4♥:[hv=b=38&s=s864ht7653d8762c5&w=sj93hadq43cak8643&n=sakqhkqj82da95ct7&e=st752h94dkjtcqj92&d=e&v=e&b=6&a=pp1c1h1s1n2c3cdpp3nppdpp4cd4hppdppp&p=cqc5ckc7sjsas2s4hkh4h3has9sks5s6hqh9h5c3sqs7s8s3ctcjh6c4d2d3d9dtc9&c=10&k=n]399|300[/hv] Making 10 doubled was worth 9.47 imps.

TWO4BRIDGE Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Not only an odd auction but an odd play at the end when East gave a ruff-N-sluff with that ♣ lead.... thereby handing declarer the otherwise "unmakable" contract . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 I do not understand south bidding, North play and east counterplay :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartic Posted March 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 At the table, I didn't think of the legitimate line of playing for either opponent to have KQ or Kx of ♦ and hence be forced to concede a ruff & sluff (assuming they don't unblock with Kx). I was just playing for a mis-defence. Happily I got one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
