Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Bermuda Bowl RR21: MONACO vs NETHERLANDS
- Hah, yes, sorry. Just so used to writing those names on the team...
- Lyon Round-Robin, Day 6
- Thanks, fixed.
- Rebid Problem?
- "Less than impressed"? Lol. The top three names under 1♣ then 1NT are Michael Rosenberg, JDonn, and some guy who just won the Spingold four-handed. (The next guy's credentials aren't so hot, though. Edit: I'm no longer fourth on the list.) Clearly good players voted for ...
- Spingold Deal
- Thanks, I guess I wasn't paying enough attention to the auction on Vugraph. I've corrected the article.
- 4-3-2-4

- ATB-Today's Common Game bd.7
- East did cuebid, you know...
- CAPLAN Upsets STRUL in Spingold Round of 128
- American juniors are often more underseeded than foreigners because the seeding committee doesn't adjust Americans' seeding points. It was Monaco's bad luck to draw this team, which should realistically be a 40-50 seed.
- Grand National Slams
- The upper limit for 2♠ is 9 or maybe a poor 10 HCP. Invitational hands still bid 1♠ then 3♠.
- Peg Kaplan's bidding problem: xx x Axxx Qxxxxx
- What happens is you play a silly contract. Inverted minors have their losses, just like any other convention.
