nt|henryb:  India is third in the Senior Bowl, USA 1 is tied for 7th|pg||
nt|otoj: hi all|pg||
mb|5D|nt|henryb:  On the surface 4@s is a very reasonable contract -- down because of the bad red suit breaks.|pg||
nt|3for3: north south play canape with a big club...|pg||
nt|3for3: ew 2/1 american style|pg||
nt|ritong: on the other hand, leading a @d in dummy's suit is not attractive either|pg||

pc|dQ|nt|henryb:  down 1, which is actually a good save against a making 4@h for N-S|pg||
pc|h9|nt|hlortz: was mosca's pass over 4@S forcing?  maybe|pg||
nt|3for3: levin doesnt want arnim in to play 2 more rounds of trump|pg||

mb|3C|nt|jaapfr: best to pass as E but tough|pg||
nt|jaapfr: best=best result|pg||
mb|p|nt|roswolf: well if 4@C IS A CUE IN THEIR SYSTEM I WOULD BID IT|pg||
nt|roswolf: but many play it as a big 2 suiter even in this type of sequence|pg||
nt|henryb:  N-S, I think, might make 4@s or 5@d|pg||

mb|3D!|an|no 4 card M|nt|jaapfr: now 3nt in right hand whilst @C lead very unlikely|pg||

mb|p|nt|roswolf: also if 2@S would be a wjs - a slam try is indicated|pg||
nt|roswolf: 4@H clearly slamming|pg||
nt|roswolf: noryth signs off with his load of trash|pg||
nt|roswolf: SHOULD sign off|pg||
nt|henryb:  or four in a "death wish|pg||
nt|hlortz: 3? that's for wimps lol a bold 4!|pg||
nt|3for3: but a spade could have easily been right|pg||
nt|ritong: so they deserve some suffering|pg||
nt|ritong: so do their opponents next room, by the way|pg||
mb|3N|nt|jaapfr: 3nt now imo|pg||
nt|hlortz: well all that wasted @D stuff a bit unlucky but pressing for game not vul seems 'optimistic'|pg||
nt|henryb:  wimpishness has a lot so say for itself: if you had to choose between 2@h and 4@h, 2@h would be most people's choice on the N-S cards :)|pg||
nt|blewah: 6 card 11-15 or 5@c 4M|pg||
nt|henryb:  North has a tough rebid over 3@h. 3@h is forcing - although it does not promise 5|pg||
nt|henryb:  3!n might be right|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: good lead from west here.|pg||
nt|henryb:  4@h looks to be down 1: 6 trumps and three aces. But maybe he can set up the long spade while he still has control|pg||
nt|henryb:  @hJ, @s ruff, @cA, @dA -- no. not quite|pg||

nt|ritong: therefore 2@d|pg||

nt|alpagavp: quasi impossible to reach|pg||

nt|henryb:  a good slam well reached by the germans in the other room|pg||

nt|blewah: how do you like the @h lead, Oom?|pg||
mb|p|nt|henryb:  depends a little on whether E could have shown a constructive @h hand in some other way|pg||
nt|westjava: 6 club, but not easy to get there, let see|pg||
nt|jaapfr: if no pass now they will go for 6@C|pg||
nt|jaapfr: to|pg||
nt|westjava: Not especially good: 3-2 C plus DK or 3-3D or some doubleton JD.  |pg||
nt|ahalim: in fact due to the favorable @D position you also make 6NT|pg||
nt|westjava: 3@H show 3154|pg||
mb|4H|nt|bobh1: this lead doesnt help the defense|pg||

nt|henryb:  so four down|pg||
pc|cK|nt|vugraphzpd: changed it to down 4|pg||
nt|hlortz: if you go 1 down, you might be unlucky -3 or -4 suggests bidding error|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: misclaming|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: sabine claimed but shouldnt|pg||
nt|sybarra: has a @D and 2 @S to lose yet|pg||
nt|henryb:  Did declarer really pitch the @c8 from dummy?|pg||

mb|p|nt|grebrof: little bit unsure what went wrong for Sweden at board 26, but they were unable to copy the slam bid at this table by England - to my suprice I must say|pg||
nt|grebrof: even surprise|pg||
nt|mikael_w: the most intresting so far woulb be W choise to pass the hole way|pg||
nt|jaapfr: 4@SX-2 5@H C|pg||
mb|p|nt|henryb:  6@d acctually would make!|pg||
nt|henryb:  this should be 2 down, I think|pg||
nt|blewah: lol i was confused when u sai mati, Oom Jaap|pg||
mb|p|nt|westjava: down grade by lasut, 8 hcp full bal|pg||
nt|jaapfr: 5@SX-3 best both pairs can do here|pg||
pc|dA|nt|roswolf: fielders choice  declarer has only a few tricks|pg||
nt|hlortz: good save|pg||
nt|blewah: *said|pg||
nt|jaapfr: therefor I corrected|pg||
nt|henryb:  2@s is artificial, looks for 4 trumps, min/max|pg||
pc|d4|pc|d5|nt|bobh1: i guess this is the last board of the match|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: no 1 after this board..|pg||
nt|bobh1: oh 16? thx|pg||
pc|d3|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: wlc|pg||
nt|alpagavp: Again 11 for France. neve won 3NT|pg||
nt|mikael_w: well, here has been alot of relä-bids and finaly they will play the same contract as everybody els :)|pg||
nt|jaapfr: an OPTIMAL score|pg||
pc|hA|nt|grebrof: nice layout in @hs for NS here  10 easy tricks should be made here|pg||
pc|h5|nt|grebrof: trumps 2-2 too, so|pg||
nt|rnmalik: should be an easy make.|pg||
nt|3for3: well, 10-12 at unfavorable is pretty loony, imo.  No offense to those who do so|pg||
pc|h2|nt|bobh1: he could have ducked the @D|pg||
nt|sybarra: yes with certain dbles you could go for 800 or so |pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: almost none playing 12-14 vul, 10-12 would be too much|pg||
nt|blewah: you cannot take side, Pak Jaap. according to the handbook of commentators page 1034|pg||
pc|h9|pg||
pc|hK|pc|h8|pc|h7|nt|grebrof: and the obvious @h-switch comes|pg||
pc|s2|pg||
pc|c6|nt|roswolf: declarer still has some guessing to do|pg||
nt|lechcold: w Open dwa du¿e klopsy Martensa z Jassemem w Pokoju Zamkniêtym w rozdaniach 5 i 7,ale Holendrzy te¿ nie b³yszcz¹|pg||

pc|c4|pc|cQ|pc|cK|pg||
nt|henryb:  2 down is 9 imps; 3 down is 5 to the US|pg||
nt|ritong: enfin bon, la route est longue et tout le monde a un match creux, c est inévitable|pg||
pc|dQ|nt|henryb:  Thanks to BBO, the WBF, the NBB, and all the people who make this possible. Including the players and all of you kibitzers|pg||
pc|d9|nt|jaapfr: against 10 Indonesian±'=|pg||
pc|d7|nt|alpagavp: on board 28|pg||
nt|westjava: I think wrong time for this board to down grade cause E has space to bid his @S|pg||
pc|d6|pg||
pc|dT|pc|s3|pc|d2|nt|sybarra: couple of imps for the cushion |pg||
pc|d8|pg||
pc|sA|nt|mikael_w: would be intrested to see how E/W do in @h. But there is a big risk it will end up in a bloodbatch when the trumphs starts to thin out|pg||

nt|hlortz: and its 3:35am here in seattle so i'm off to bed. enjoyable comments and some action hads|pg||
nt|3for3: 2@D multi overcall?|pg||
nt|sybarra: something special |pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: ty! lets see if we get to 100 imps on this set|pg||
nt|ritong: ah haa|pg||
mb|d|nt|grebrof: I think mainly your P has to be able to dbl/bid 1nt or so if a balancing with those 10hp should be right - but ok|pg||
nt|alunand14: thanks karen.....thanks jaap......thanks all :)|pg||
nt|henryb:  will A make a negative double? yes|pg||
mb|2C|nt|bobh1: on 13, where NS had a shapely 11 opposite 8, they did bid 4@H in the other room|pg||
nt|henryb:  2@h is 5+@h, 5+ second suit, less than opening strength|pg||
nt|hlortz: hands that n key is nnnnnnnnnnnnnnot going to behave :)|pg||
nt|ritong: allez allez!|pg||
nt|blewah: thanks Karen, WBF and BBO (including all kibz and commentators)|pg||

mb|d|mb|p|nt|vugraphzpd: see you all tomorrow for the next matches, starting at 10.30 hours|pg||
nt|sybarra: they may use the "multi overcall" vs a big club system |pg||
nt|sybarra: I am guessing|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: I think they are yes|pg||
nt|sybarra: difficult auction for n/s to get into, but then do they really want to be "in" |pg||

nt|ritong: carrément|pg||
nt|ritong: il est vraiment rassuré:)|pg||
nt|ritong: le score final devrait être 18/12|pg||
nt|ritong: pas de gros bobo|pg||
nt|vugraphzpd: I'm not sure if I read the explanation of 3@H right|pg||
nt|jaapfr: perfect pressure bid 5@D|pg||
mb|p|nt|roswolf: power bidding|pg||
mb|p|mb|p|nt|grebrof: 4 @s must be better than this|pg||
nt|3for3: meyers cant be sad defending with 6 trump is always fun|pg||
nt|sybarra: if Sabine passes,   might have been -2 and tied match?|pg||
nt|3for3: i think it would have been better than that for ew.|pg||
nt|ritong: il va tabler très vite|pg||
nt|lokaty: dwa ostatnie rozdania nieciekawe|pg||
nt|jaapfr: if 5@H and expected @SA lead N has enough @S to falsecard and E might continue @D in tr 2|pg||
pc|h2|nt|hlortz: even better 3n makes ew also lol|pg||
nt|rnmalik: 5@D can make except for super defence, @CA and small @S.:)|pg||
nt|projekt1: again a possibility for phantastic defence : @cA -10, low @s -  @c ruff|pg||

pc|h3|pg||
nt|grebrof: as predicted, the swedish kids at the other table werent fooled into bidding 3nt on board 30 - with a luckyer layout it would make, but streching at nonvul rarely wins you ...|pg||
nt|grebrof: teammatches|pg||
nt|alunand14: jaap, good news from Indonesia ladies : board 28 play 3NT|pg||
nt|henryb:  with the favorable location of both kings and good diamond break declarer should make 3 or four, winning 2 imps|pg||
pc|cK|nt|grebrof: unfortunately, the lead makes the contract for NS|pg||
nt|rnmalik: The moment of truth:)|pg||
pc|c9|pc|c3|pc|c6|pg||
