- Something unusual ...
- OK David, if this makes you feel better... There were a lot of faulty actions from both sides: - The 1♠ opening was made with (bad) 11 HCP and 5-3-3-2 shape. A pass would have been much better. - The 2NT overcall was made with 7 HCP and 3-0-5-5 shape. So ...

- Paul Weinstock's bidding problem: T65 JT543 K82 QT

- Henry, my bad. I should have given the 2♥, 3♥ and 4♥ bids of responder and the meaning of every bid. This treatment feels so standard in 2/1, or in the variant of 2/1 which is played around here (ISR) that I didn't even ...
- Rohit Gupta's lead problem: 5 J8 QJ942 98432
