about me
Born in 1992, March 29. 2nd year student in Industrial Engineering Department at Middle East Technical University. I was in the Turkish Youngster Team in Albena/Bulgaria in 2011 and European Youth Pairs Championship in Vejle/Denmark 2012 but I'm not youngster anymore :) Also I've playing chess since I was 4. I played in many international chess competitions as a part of Turkish National Team but now I'm spending more time on bridge than chess.
Country

Omar Olgeirsson's bidding problem: T7 A AJT653 KQJ8
I bid 3, pure natural. If partner backs to 3 then I will continue with 3
Hugh Williams's bidding problem: 98 QT9 KQJ86 AQ7
If I bid 3NT here, partner may not have a courage to balance again.
Erkmen Aydogdu's lead problem: 874 3 42 AK97642
Yes, you're right. I trust all the voters about not using this information :)
Erkmen Aydogdu's bidding problem: A52 KT42 86 QT85
Thanks for comments, on the actual hand partner had KJxx AQxxx Kxxx -- and 3 will be made. 3nt will go down 1 or 2. And the 3 bidders will get the prize.
Erkmen Aydogdu's bidding problem: AKQ865 KQ84 --- A85
Partner had Jx Axxx KQxxxx x, and 7 is laydown. Thanks for your comments
Dima Nikolenkov's bidding problem: 63 85 KQ95 T9764
My hand is way stronger than xxx xxx xxx xxxx. so I think I should bid sth different than 5
Terry Beckman's bidding problem: T4 AQT3 JT87 KJ6
Vulnerability and scoring is so favorable that I vote for double. If one of the conditions changed ,I mean Mp=>Imp or Non-Vul => Vul , I would pass.
Jason Chiu's bidding problem: KT9 xxx Q8xxx Ax
If opp. opened 2 and my hand was Q8xxx xx KT9 Axx this would be a harder question but now we're risking only -180 here.
Dean Pokorny's bidding problem: K987 2 Q9 A87643
change my Q to Queen of then I would bid 2
Art Mirin's bidding problem: AQJ7 6 KT9873 87
I really don't need these nice spots on diamond. Opening is clear-cut for me. If you take my spots on dia and ALSO jack of spades then I would pass.
