1928.1 | pass by me | GAAS::BRAUCHER | Champagne Supernova | Mon Feb 10 1997 13:34 | 8 |

Well, Dave, I'd pass, as you'd probably suspect. In my view, this is
not forcing, and I'm sitting for anything partner does.
I'm just not smart enough to guess the locations of the undisclosed 36
high card points !

| I would have bid 4S the first time according to the LAW. I don't see any way
to recover. Partner does not have a good count on the size of our spade fit.
I'd pass and hope they are taking a phantom save.

| Well, your 5 spades have reduced partners DT in that suit.
It's quite possible they can make 5D. If you weren't vul,
5S stands out. Now it's a matter of tossing again your lucky
coin. Heads? Go 5S.

1928.4 | Need help from JK to fill in EW hands | DAVIDB::DMILLER | This bug fix broke what??????? | Tue Feb 11 1997 15:32 | 26 |
| Turns out I was the only one at the table who knew whose hand it was...
Mine!
Partial layout (JK, help me out with your 2D hand):
Txxxx-Txx-xx-Axx
x-Kxx-??????-Qxx Qx-xxxx-????-Txx
AKJxx-AQJ-x-KJxx
Auction: P-P-1S-2D-3S*-4D-4S-5D-5S?-P-P(Aaargh!)-P
Partner bid 5S trying to make up for the extra spade length and
valuable CA. Unfortunately, he's already shown me spade length
and very little points, and should probably leave the choice up
to me.
They can score 6D + HK, and as long as we don't break clubs, 5DX
will be +1100, otherwise +800.
The defense at our table was low diamond to one of RHO's honors,
and RHO correctly returned a heart. Now there's no way to make it.
Our partners let 5S make on diamond lead, diamond ruffed. Trump
was pulled, then HJ led. West ducked, and got end-played on HA,
HQ continuation.

1928.5 | good spots | CSLALL::mko-ras-port-3.mko.dec.com::JKeenan | Jay Keenan (603) 883-7913 | Tue Feb 11 1997 16:01 | 4 |

I think we had the C9 for -800
Partner's 4D bid really wasn't very good, but then my 2D call was a
little light as well.
