nt|kareno: Sure didn't sound like they were missing that or the heart ace.|pg||
nt|migry: from what i've seen in the other room welland picked imps in boards 16 and 18 , either 13 or 15|pg||
mb|p|mb|2S|mb|p|nt|kareno: So Meltzer closes the gap some.|pg||
mb|p|mb|p|nt|kareno: Problem with the north hand is the length in spades.  Partner is known to have some values but not doubling so not short in spades.|pg||

pc|d3|pc|d2|pc|dK|nt|kareno: Yes, there's virtually no chance that south has a trap pass.|pg||

nt|gavin: very little upside opposite a limited partner|pg||
nt|gavin: last thing he wants to hear is 3H|pg||
mb|r|mb|2S|mb|3C|nt|gavin: west's hand doesnt have much in high cards|pg||
mb|p|nt|gavin: strange hand to evaluate|pg||
nt|kareno: Drury by Welland|pg||
nt|pef: 2c is drury, checking on how good an opener willenken had|pg||
nt|gavin: willenken knows now that welland has a joke of an overcall|pg||
mb|3D|nt|kareno: But lots of play possibilities depending on suit fits.|pg||
nt|migry: 2@c is drury showing a good @h raise and 2@d is artificial showing a decent hand - not god enough to drive to game on its own|pg||
nt|migry: good|pg||
nt|pef: 2d a real opener, but not enough to bid game right away (or possibly planning to make a slam try later)|pg||
mb|p|nt|migry: 2NT wd start the slam tries |pg||
nt|gavin: his hand is pretty big, hard to sit in 3c|pg||
nt|gavin: but|pg||
nt|gavin: listening to his two opponents bidding|pg||
mb|p|nt|gavin: and that welland didnt pass 2S then bid again|pg||
nt|gavin: i think willenken might have had enough info to stop|pg||
mb|3S|nt|gavin: 4h is a good spot vul at teams, its a 50% contract and they will win 10 imps if it makes and only lose 6 if it doesnt|pg||
nt|migry: they were not forced to 3C so maybe 3@c shows something|pg||
mb|d|mb|p|mb|p|nt|kareno: Actually it's a respectable 4@h for teams pretty much on the trump finesse.|pg||
nt|pef: game here, pretty much on the heart finesse or a favorable opening lead of some type--worth bidding vul at imps, but likely to go down on this lie of the cards|pg||
nt|pef: but schermer might lead a spade and allow it to make|pg||
mb|p|nt|pef: oh sorry, chambers on lead|pg||
nt|gavin: chambers quickly stopper schermer from leading out of turn :)|pg||
nt|gavin: well done!|pg||
nt|kareno: :)|pg||
nt|pef: five imps to meltzer, then|pg||
nt|pef: south opened 1c in first seat (weinstein and garner play very light openers) which got rid of most of the opportunity for e/w to bid game|pg||
nt|gavin: sometimes its hard to stop yourself with 10 trumps and more than half the points to bid game in a major|pg||
nt|kareno: Switch the heart and spade kings and it will make|pg||
nt|pef: well on this hand, do you really want to stop?|pg||
nt|pef: just switch the heart king|pg||
pc|cA|pc|c9|nt|migry: not sure why N had to bid again |pg||
pc|c6|pc|cJ|pg||
nt|kareno: His only legitimate chance.|pg||
nt|migry: he has 6 points and 4333|pg||
nt|gavin: i think chris passed 3c|pg||
nt|gavin: and sonty balanced 3d|pg||
nt|gavin: now it went pass 3S X|pg||
pc|h7|pc|hT|pc|hA|nt|gavin: north may play JT of spades here cause he doesnt know who has 3 and who has two spades|pg||
pc|h2|pg||
nt|gavin: playing with someone like roy, you quickly learn to trust the opps|pg||
pc|d4|nt|migry: that wd make more sense than 3@s by N|pg||
pc|dA|pc|d5|nt|gavin: then south will have to rise with the ace of clubs on the way up (can see its 3rd of 4 tricks with k of hearts to come)|pg||
nt|gavin: he will definitely rise AC|pg||
pc|d2|pg||
pc|hQ|pc|h4|pc|h5|pc|h6|pg||
nt|migry: ew playing 3@c in the other room|pg||
nt|gavin: though for those of you watching|pg||
nt|gavin: its only when your partner will overcall very light that you would even consider going this low with a hand like that|pg||
pc|hJ|nt|gavin: if your partner overcalls 2C|pg||
pc|h3|nt|gavin: east hand is enough to put your partner in 5|pg||
pc|hK|nt|kareno: He can see the setting trick |pg||
pc|h8|pg||
nt|migry: west overcalled 2@c over 1@d with a passed hand - that may be a little light|pg||
pc|dT|nt|hlortz: and hoping to interfere with the opps auction that started nebulous @D|pg||
nt|migry: you should always stretch to take all that space from the opps and 2@c over 1@d is devastating|pg||
nt|gavin: willenken is going to eventually be enplayed to break trumps|pg||
nt|gavin: he may choose to ruff his partners trick|pg||
nt|gavin: here|pg||
nt|migry: still 300 |pg||
nt|migry: which wd be 5 more imps as they made 3c in the other room|pg||

mb|p|mb|3H|mb|p|mb|3S|nt|pef: you can see why it was theoretically right to bid the vulnerable game there.  they lost 6 imps for going down.  they would have gained 10 for bidding it|pg||
