Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Donations Needed
- I don't suppose you could arrange with BBO for us to donate BB$ to Bridgewinners, could you?
- Today's problems were yesterday's problems too
- I guess if there are two ♠Ks we might assume there are only 12 hearts, but I don't think it's a good assumption...
- Marginal New Minor Forcing Hand
- If partner will always have 2 or 3 spades on this auction, 2♠ is worth a think. But I don't want to invite in this auction.
- ACBL Player Results now Courtesy of The Common Game
- I dunno, but it seems like Randy's comment may be exactly why Nic has so many problems getting traction. With my rose-coloured glasses on, maybe Randy was being ironic?
- Interview with Gavin Wolpert
- Found it using Podcast Addict using the same approach (search "thesettingtrick")
- Auken-Welland Lead LM Pairs
- I think you've cleverly identified reverse causality.
- Reserving Rights
- Phil clearly plays against different players than I do (notwithstanding having played against him in KC last year). When you're down below 2500 masterpoints, "can we agree your partner's call was a little slow" is taken as an insult for some reason.
- Paul Holmes's bidding problem: 32 AKQJ94 QJ42 A
- So I belted out 7♦, hoping this was a 5-or-7 hand; after all, surely partner has the ♦A, and we're likely making 7♦ if I can talk them out of a spade lead. I was half-right about the 5-or-7 when partner turned up with ♠K74 ♥7 ♦K9853 ...
