sfi Posted August 20, 2015 Report Share Posted August 20, 2015 To teammates? If you bid like this and you were to win you will need to explain to the disciplinary authorities that you were not using a wire. Were you? That's rather an overreaction. Everybody has stories about dreadful making slams - mine involves QJ tight of trumps, a 3-3 break, a finesse, and a squeeze. It happens, but getting to it does not instil confidence in partner, teammates, or your captain. Because the next 50 times you will be losing 13 imps rather than gaining them.

My story I was on the wrong end of was dummy decked with a flat 10 count having bid 6N opposite a 20-21 2N - "sorry partner miscounted my points". 2 3-3 breaks and 3 finesses later we got no matchpoints.
