North/South asked about the alert and was told by east it was opening hand or better. After north took 13 tricks, N/S called me over and said west didn't have an opening hand that east had claimed.
North/South found out after the hand was over. I don't believe there was an suggestion that the 3D bid was weak since it was alerted by east and north had inquired.
You could argue this was a possible double shot but did ask East what the alert was ...
Sorry I posted this quickly. North claims if he knew the 3D bid by west was weak he would have bid 3S then bid 4NT over 4H by south. Both N and S have over 2,000 masterpoints.
Hi Dennis,
Congratulations on winning POY. I'm happy to say that I had the honour and pleasure of playing a couple of hands with you in native country of Denmark.
I like your attitude and temperament at the bridge table. You are very calm and comfortable to play with ...
