Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Defending Against the Precision 2!c Opening
- lebensohl 2♦ also wins when you get to stop in 2M when you have some values and doubler doesn't.
- Not so simple? suit combination
- Considering that QTxx was a holding you could pick up, I think it was A82 vs J9654
- USBF Invitational 1: My adventures on BBO part 2
- Maybe not a great double, but they also saw how the match was going at the time, so perhaps it seemed like it was necessary. It's true that the likely trick given up by the double means you need to really have thought you had chances of setting it ...

- World championships individual
- Or this guy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_John_Hurt
- Denial Cuebidding
- https://bridgewinners.com/article/view/difficult-evaluation/ You wrote about the weak relay two weeks ago (really probably several months ago, or however far ahead you are these days)
- How bad is this double?
- Let me guess: you doubled at the table, your partner said it was a terrible double, you posted for vindication and retribution?
