Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Ankur Rathi's bidding problem: Q96 865 AK75 874
- Yeah sorry, should have noted that 2n is leb
- Ankur Rathi's bidding problem: A98 J63 K43 QT42
- Just to clarify - lebensohl is on here (fast denies)
- Get That Overtrick
- There's a slight possibility that W is 1-4-3-5, so I'm going to first cash AK of clubs and see if I can get an honest count signal from E (or maybe get lucky and drop doubleton Q offside). If I think I've got the count right I ...
- Anant Rathi's bidding problem: AK9xx Qx 8xxx Kx

- Your Ruling, Please
- Do we know if a poll was conducted? Seems like that's called for here (i.e. to help the director validate the existence of logical alternatives and what players of East's caliber would do without the UI).
- Hiding and unhiding forums
- +1 - I just tried adding a forum to my forums, and it doesn't show up in my forums list (on BW homepage).
