Teams, red against green:

 

[hv=d=e&v=e&b=6&a=pp1s2dpp2h3d]133|100[/hv]

 

I didn't think my hand was good enough for an unfavourable weak two opening. System 5CM, strong NT, direct raises in competition are weak(ish), bidding to the fit. Your call?

Looks like I was on the conservative side. I only bid 3 on fear of having no defence and possibly pushing them into a making game. This is what happened:

 

[hv=pc=n&s=sat8hjdk94cqt9542&w=sk7542hak542dq6c6&n=sq63htdaj8752cak7&e=sj9hq98763dt3cj83&d=e&v=e&b=6&a=pp1s2dpp2h3d3h4dppp]399|300[/hv]

 

+190 when I led a spade instead of a heart was not a success story for them. Our teammates auction was a little more aggressive:

 

[hv=d=e&v=e&b=6&a=p1c2c3c4h5c5h6cppp]133|100[/hv]

 

A nice swing our way, very lucky South was incredibly passive, North is normally a very aggressive player.

If you were on the conservative side, what was South, comatose?

 

I know the South player and partnered her prior to COVID, and to be fair to her, she has been having a rough time recently, which may have affected her bridge.
