- Realistic or Too Fantastic
- How so, Craig? Assuming South began with 3 hearts and 2 clubs, suppose West continues the spade attack. By switching to his (4-card) club suit upon winning the d10, East ensures at least 3 round-suit tricks to add to 2 d tricks.
- Realistic or Too Fantastic
- Yup, it’s pretty much on West to decide whether an active defense figures to be necessary.
- James Tyner's bidding problem: --- AKQJ AKJ8532 K8
- It would be a bummer to go down in 6D on a club ruff.
- James Tyner's bidding problem: --- AKQJ AKJ8532 K8
- (Many play 3C as natural.) I agree with those confident that 1D won’t end the auction.
- Andrzej Matuszewski's lead problem: Q63 KJ84 AJ7 K76
- (The theme, composed by Lalo Schifrin, was perfection itself.)
- YBTJ (and Jury?) - Regional Swiss Teams
- I’ll get started on my expatriation arrangements right away.
- A "What's this double?" from the world junior online championship
- Why the dire need to specify “constructive” when the likelihood of East-West’s being allowed to play a making game is so low?
- YBTJ (and Jury?) - Regional Swiss Teams
- Absent an available conventional 3C jump-shift, suit solidity is not a necessary condition for the sequence.
- YBTJ (and Jury?) - Regional Swiss Teams
- Michal, most players are quite happy to loan you their 3S bid if missing from your bid-box. ;-)
- Can Korkmaz's bidding problem: AJxxx J9xx Ax xx
- Not “redundant”: sometimes one refers to the original post, sometimes to its author.
