- Board 9 - March 12 Bermuda Bowl - Italy v Argentina
- Profound words, Stephen. I completely agree. Exactly what I've observed myself. (Except for the statement that you can get by with it in the states until playing at a top level.) Now that I'm an almost an Aussie I find myself doing it too, because I get by ...
- Board 9 - March 12 Bermuda Bowl - Italy v Argentina
- I'd agree with that. There's always something.
- Board 10, March 12th, Italy vs Argentina Bermuda Bowl 2007
- PLease do. I'm always interested in this sort of deal...

- Board 26 March 19th Brazil vs Netherlands 2007
- Well-judged to defend. I can't imagine how you could double 1S. But I can imagine 1NTX. In Australia, 1NT P P X seems to be a strong notrump. Not so in other parts of the world. Standard to me is about 11-14 (vs a strong notrump or a weak ...
