hautbois Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 [hv=pc=n&s=sa9hk943dt943ck64&w=s84hqjt82d62cqj75&n=skj75ha65dj8ct982&e=sqt632h7dakq75ca3]399|300[/hv] Reason in spoiler East and West can both make 1♠, 1♥, 1♦, and 1♣ but neither of them can make 1NT. North and South can both make 1NT, but can't make 7 tricks in any suit. Additionally, all failing contracts fail by exactly 1. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighLow21 Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 I disagree--if your claim is true, it's very interesting to note a hand in which one side can make 1 of any suit but NOT 1nt. Falls under the category of "Interesting Bridge Hands" in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 The counterpart to this is the hand where the best contract that can be made is 1N by all 4 hands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1 Posted November 14, 2013 Report Share Posted November 14, 2013 Thomas Andews found an interesting deal where 1♥, 1♠, and 1N are makeable, no matter who is declarer. His website also features a wonderful deal where all four players can make 3N on any defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
