mb|p|nt|ryskiel_: czy jestemy ju¿ w tej fazie, ¿e ciesz¹ nas zremisowane rozdania?|pg||
nt|chmitty: à 3SA ou à 4@s ?|pg||
nt|ritong: j ai naivement imaginé que levin dirait 3SA|pg||
mb|3N|nt|ahollan1: i believe the other dutch pairs play Raptor NT overcalls  so North will bid 1N to show 4@H & 5+@C/@D|pg||
nt|ahollan1: doubt it will make any difference in final contract/result|pg||
nt|reisig: Not the toughest hand to play |pg||
nt|odysseus69: 2H or pass?|pg||
mb|p|nt|joanem:  better to show your 4 card suit and play the 5/2 |pg||
mb|p|nt|vugraphznz: coffee hand ?|pg||

nt|fokal: this may make|pg||

mb|p|nt|lechcold: w 18 sorry:(|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: juz powinno byc dobrze|pg||
nt|josj: and it may go down|pg||
nt|fokal: because of the @h suit |pg||
nt|fokal: but has to guess corrcty in @d|pg||
nt|josj: E will duck the @DA and create a little problem|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: loose 1h,1d and 1c...|pg||
nt|fokal: and not start with @c|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: yes true|pg||
nt|fokal: tough board|pg||
nt|josj: hi Olivier, welcome to join into the commentary :)|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: my bet is on Willard... she will make this|pg||
nt|josj: I tend to agree...|pg||
nt|odysseus69: the minor suit 10s and the weak hearts suggest a pass of 1NT|pg||
nt|joanem: now they will have a bad time in the 43 breaking 42 |pg||
nt|vugraphznz: this can be a swing board|pg||
nt|meargent: and it aint 4th best|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: N is not sure|pg||
nt|meargent: well i am|pg||
nt|ritong: peut être ont elles une réponse pour les deux majeures|pg||
pc|d5|nt|kiwibridge: Lall's fit showing jump shut out the @S in the other room|pg||
nt|kiwibridge: here GeO remains silent|pg||
nt|ahollan1: other room also 3N east  after 1@S open with Fredin passing 1st round|pg||
nt|ahollan1: @HT falling means 2nd stopper in the suit -- and natural attack of @C kills entry to long @H|pg||
nt|joanem: 2s much easier |pg||
nt|joanem: and jill lead |pg||
nt|odysseus69: but 2S also down|pg||
nt|ritong: et dans ce cas levin aurait opté pour 4@s, sûre d un doubleton en face|pg||

pc|d2|nt|jbgood: only need to find the killing defense|pg||

nt|aramesh_:  Hi Barbara-wlc:)|pg||
pc|dK|nt|ahollan1: nice shift|pg||
nt|alunand14: we watching the match between England (rank 1) with Indonesia (rank 4)....|pg||
nt|mamos: this might all depend on Spades|pg||
pc|d7|nt|ady: just saw this one go down    Pakistan North got diamond lead   and played spade to the king and trick 2  and conceeded 2nd spade tricke and spade ruff and K@H|pg||
pc|d6|pg||
nt|ritong: de nos jours, on dit 1SA 3SA dans les deux salles et on laisse les défenseurs se débrouiller|pg||
pc|s2|pc|s3|nt|mamos: ah the defence can get a Diamond ruff now|pg||
pc|sQ|nt|vugraphznz: nice start|pg||
nt|josj: first hurdle surmounted|pg||
pc|s7|pg||
nt|ady: this looks safer   though a club is a little worry|pg||
nt|ady: if North plays the ace and draws last trump   and plays a spade  and plays the 9  and east has the queden  then a 2nd club would defeat the contract|pg||
pc|sA|pc|s5|nt|mamos: hello everyone :)|pg||

nt|chmitty: les Françaises sont à 4@s sur entame @d ... 11 levées probables donc|pg||
pc|s9|pc|s8|pg||
nt|drorp: seems like only shot for south is to hope parnter has J@D, i dont really know why he's still thinking... anywyaz chagas will have to unblock (which isn't that hard either)|pg||
nt|mamos: well he can see Qx|pg||
nt|grebrof: maybe easier now after the lead of the K|pg||
nt|grebrof: yeah - Im a beginner at this|pg||
nt|grebrof: :)|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: Esat doing well :)|pg||
pc|s4|nt|ady: has seen the possible difficulty  and decided on the club finesse    that has resolved any problem|pg||
pc|hQ|pc|sK|nt|josj: and the @D return should clarify the position in that suit|pg||
nt|josj: E had better ducked the ace|pg||

nt|ahollan1: Fallenius led his singleton @D|pg||

pc|sT|nt|mamos: easy for declarer now|pg||
pc|h2|nt|ady: looks like 11 tricks|pg||
pc|s6|nt|grebrof: but ok - it should be easy and it was|pg||
nt|drorp: unblocking in the 1st trick is good techqnique, if you gonna unblock better do it 1st trick possible, just to make it easier on partner|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: careful now|pg||
nt|ahollan1: after @D lead  Brink won Ace and shifted to @H|pg||
nt|antoniz: jak wyrzuci pika to bajt,dziêki opozycjo|pg||

mb|2D!|nt|3for3: dangerous to michaels with 2 cards more in your lower suit.|pg||

nt|ahollan1: 3N=good preemptive raise but i don't think this hand qualifies|pg||
nt|ahollan1: they don't seem to have a bid for "mixed"|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: good pre is about the same as mixed?|pg||
nt|ahollan1: so  what does south do with 5 card support an 10 losers????|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 1N=good 12-15 HCP   usually denies 5@H/@S|pg||
nt|ryskiel_: chcia³em wys³aæ ¿onê po szmpana ale powiedzia³¹, ¿e nie pójdzie|pg||
nt|chmitty: Sud a dit 2@d bicolore avec la main de Sud dans l'autre salle|pg||

nt|kiwibridge: weak 2 either major|pg||
nt|ahollan1: i wouldn't be surprised if 2@H IS the winner in long run|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 2N=PUP 3@C  a) weak @C/@D  b) @D, some shortness|pg||
nt|ritong: plusieurs options pour joanna|pg||
nt|ritong: contre, 3@s, 3@c|pg||

nt|vugraphznz: dziekuje za zwrocenie uwagi|pg||
nt|odysseus69: 4S cheap|pg||

mb|5D|nt|lechcold: w PO Jassem gra 2@S w tym rozdaniu|pg||
nt|mamos: albeit not a very good suit|pg||
nt|grebrof: some think that their opps read their conventioncard and often try to "fool" the opponents - not a good idea, cause you will most times only fool your partner|pg||

nt|mamos: another easy gme foe EW |pg||
mb|p|nt|vugraphznz: almost live now :)|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: this will be difficult|pg||

nt|ahollan1: deWijs could show same shape with stronger hand by bidding above 3N|pg||

nt|odysseus69: the response of 4H not alerted - can you explain Joan|pg||
nt|odysseus69: has something gone wrong?|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: Levin looks puzzled by the 4d bid|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: 5d bid sorry|pg||

nt|joanem: cue of hearts |pg||
nt|vugraphznz: Levin thinking at the moment|pg||
nt|odysseus69: if 4C was key card North may reaiise she gave wrong response and bid 6C now|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: Levin stil thinking|pg||
nt|joanem: levin very worried about spades as no cue there?|pg||
nt|sybarra: and no sac |pg||

nt|chmitty: mais je n'y crois pas|pg||
pc|dK|nt|xenya: thanks :)|pg||
nt|ahollan1: but it also allows NS to get into the auction|pg||

nt|vugraphznz: both sides of the screen discussing the 4c bid lol|pg||
pc|d8|nt|odysseus69: 2D seems to have worked - North didnt have enough for 2H but maybe after 3C -p-p 3H is possible|pg||
nt|reisig: 2@h was possible as dealer|pg||
pc|dJ|pg||
nt|drorp: not easy decision for Amaral, and he gives a lot of credit to the vul overcall|pg||
nt|mamos: hate 5@c there - seems better to bid 4@c the previous round  Job done|pg||
nt|ahollan1: declarer will probably try to find @S10 doubleton somewhere|pg||
nt|ahollan1: no real way to force defense to break @S or @D   [frozen suits]|pg||
nt|meargent: not such a good line if @Ss ly badly|pg||
nt|meargent: should play @S NOW|pg||
nt|sybarra: but it ace of sp with W,  now would have to deal with @D ruff |pg||
nt|sybarra: and a club loser   |pg||
nt|sybarra: that was but if, spade ace|pg||
nt|meargent: she is probably DOOMED then in any case|pg||
nt|meargent: if east has 3@Hs |pg||
nt|vugraphznz: N asking about signals|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: shaking her head now|pg||
nt|meargent: in OR north bid a direct 4@Hs over 3@Ss and US got to 8@Ss|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: and S is reading the bulletin|pg||
nt|sybarra: I guess the ace of sp has to be with E, given the opening |pg||
nt|meargent: ace and @H will work but i dont thinck its best|pg||

pc|cQ|nt|josj: best defence|pg||
nt|ahollan1: live results under  http://www.worldbridge.org/tourn/Veldhoven.11/Results.htm|pg||
nt|joanem: i think jill L thought that 5d was cue agreeing clubs denying 1st or 2nd round control of spades - so passed 5d|pg||
nt|lechcold: Murniatinie zaryzykowa³a wejcia 1@D,ciekawe...|pg||
nt|ryskiel_: a ile Lechu?|pg||
pc|cA|nt|drorp: double dummy this contract makes, double finessing the JT of hearts, and chagas might actually make it if he can place Gino with the A@C from the quick double on 5@C|pg||
nt|grebrof: Israel is unbeaten so far - 16, 25 and 15, while Brasil have scored 18, 14 and 20 |pg||

pc|s5|nt|josj: the @C shift|pg||
pc|s3|nt|vugraphznz: welcome back all |pg||
nt|vugraphznz: play was very slow until now, so we did not miss many boards|pg||
nt|odysseus69: it is a recurring event- players give wrong response to keycard - dont know why |pg||
nt|lechcold: to zale¿y od wistu i rozgrywki:) po walecie karo na przyk³ad to hoho...|pg||
pc|sK|nt|xenya: good|pg||
nt|xenya: so 11 tricks coming|pg||
nt|drorp: 5@C is a big gamble that they make 4@S when u have 2 sure defensive tricks, unless he actually thought he can make 5@C|pg||
pc|s2|pg||
nt|ahollan1: that also lets you see result from ALL tables of any given hand|pg||

nt|meargent: thats always my hope|pg||
pc|s9|nt|chmitty: il aurait fallu jouer @h et @h en défaussant son @d|pg||
nt|chmitty: mais c'est jouer spécifiquement les atouts 41 et les @h 22|pg||
nt|ritong: joanna joue simplement pour l as de @s placé et les atouts ronds|pg||

nt|odysseus69: right Rich- I failed to spot the pass|pg||
pc|d2|nt|ahollan1: 66 teams all playing same board  makes for great comparisons|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: if south doesn't have the @sJ he might now underlead the Ace|pg||
nt|ahollan1: @CJ to show more points and maybe get Muller to place @SA in north??|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: in fear of giving 2 discards on @c if declarer had @c KQT|pg||
nt|ritong: 3@d a indiqué un fit franc, trois cartes a @s|pg||
nt|chmitty: on ne peut plus que défausser pour ne chuter que d'une|pg||

pc|d4|pg||
nt|grebrof: the 4th match (the internetsite is finally up again), Israel scored 22 and Brasil 25, so both these teams have started off very well|pg||
nt|drorp: heading towards 2 off now, had to play a heart, now he won't have 2 entries anymore|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Cullin just convincing himself that nothing can go wrong with @D play|pg||
pc|hJ|nt|ahollan1: should have gone with gut|pg||

nt|lechcold: 5@H sorry|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Nabil held too many @S to duck the Q    i think|pg||
nt|mamos: so a quietish start to the match with a few overtricks and a small partscore swing|pg||

mb|1H|nt|ahollan1: 2@S=@S + @C/@D|pg||
mb|d!|nt|ryskiel_: 4 pik? a mo¿e co innego od Piotra?|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Leaping Michaels   4@D=@D and @H|pg||
nt|odysseus69: 3H from North now standard |pg||
nt|sybarra: and an easy 3 nt here ++2|pg||
nt|meargent: the trick here is to avoid slam|pg||
mb|2H|nt|ahollan1: IF you agree to play the convention with your partner -- make sure you know if 4minor bid is forcing|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: muller has a good hand now with 2 aces, 4 trumps and a singleton|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: though he would prefer to have more high card points in the red suits|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 5@D in the other room  elAhmady running trump interesting squeeze possibilities|pg||
nt|ahollan1: and LOTS of pressure on defenders to discard properly|pg||
nt|ahollan1: jump to 6@D very reasonable here|pg||
nt|ahollan1: don't know if there is any scientific way to investigate staying lower or getting higher|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: but with the hearts the way they are, even 5@d is a difficult contract|pg||
nt|ahollan1: maybe 4@S|pg||
nt|sybarra: 4333 in N, not source of tricks|pg||
nt|sybarra: but I think I remember n/s can open some wild nt bids |pg||
mb|p!|an|<3 spades|nt|ahollan1: 16+ unbal or 18+ bal|pg||
nt|meargent: hopefully for NS they wont find their @D fit|pg||
nt|chmitty: c'était très dur de passer 5@h pour Joanna : en disant 5@h Sud indique seulement son envie de jouer au palier de 5|pg||
nt|ritong: l alerte de 2@h passe signifie que passe dénie 3 @ss|pg||
mb|3H|nt|mamos: partscore board|pg||
nt|odysseus69: but if 4C was keycard then ideal- provided North knows about it|pg||

mb|p|nt|ryskiel_: 5 @s pewnie powie|pg||

nt|drorp: other table bidding started with north opening and then rebidding clubs, so this result might be duplicated, but i didn't see how the bidding ended|pg||
nt|ahollan1: maybe 4@S=slam interest @H  and 5@C=slam interest @D|pg||
nt|odysseus69: the double pprobably was 4 or more spades where 1S would deny 4|pg||
nt|lechcold: eee co Ty, bilety powrotne i tak maj¹ pewnie zarezerwowane na 30-go|pg||
nt|mamos: 1NT  F1|pg||
mb|p|nt|kiwibridge: 14-17 and aggressive jump by Ware|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 1@D=0-4 zz  could have game force strength    [zz  A=3 K=2 Q=1]|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 1@H=a) 16-19 HCP, 5+@H  b) any 20+ HCP|pg||

nt|grebrof: as I see there are others that are more updated than me - the 5th match has suddenly appeared on the site :D|pg||
nt|ahollan1: my notes stop here :(|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: South asked about 3@S, West: let me think|pg||
nt|ahollan1: i believe EW play the same 1@C structure as Bertheau-Nystrom  but  i don't have those 4th bids either|pg||
nt|ahollan1: from one who KNOWS     3@S=it shows 3-4 zz, 5+H, 4S, void in C|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: is what west explained|pg||
nt|ahollan1: reliable source confirms my guess about 4@S/5@C|pg||
nt|ahollan1: nice stop!|pg||
nt|ahollan1: trump lead makes sense but probably @SK|pg||
pc|cK|nt|vugraphznz: de Wijs asking about 2@s|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: if it's exactly 5@s an 4+ in a minor. South confirming this|pg||
nt|barbyh: prob shows a nf distributional hand|pg||
nt|sybarra: oops|pg||
nt|meargent: from my point of view this is more than decent if NS bid it|pg||
pc|cA|nt|vugraphznz: 4h did not make at the other table....so another big chunk of imps for france|pg||
nt|josj: they were in 2nt...:)|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: loool... i see now|pg||
nt|lokaty: treflowy tylko k³ad³ chyba|pg||
nt|lokaty: 3@S da³ Burek, bo graj¹ 1 NT 14-16|pg||
nt|joanem: but having an 8 card beautiful diamond suit is sad to be raising clubs on 3 small  |pg||
nt|vugraphznz: this link seems to work: http://www.wkbridge2011.com/en/live/scorebord-venice-cup|pg||
nt|mamos: not much to be said about this either|pg||
pc|c5|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 4@C=relay   4@S=3zz  4630|pg||
nt|odysseus69: many still play that 1S promises 5 and double is no more than 4 spades|pg||
nt|sybarra: certainly this pair is not afraid to bid 'em |pg||
nt|meargent: EW will have to try really hard to let this one through and i for one dont think they can do it|pg||
nt|chmitty: Bénédicte a chuté 4@c|pg||
nt|chmitty: sans doute sur le flanc AR de @h suivi de petit @s ... elle a mal deviné|pg||
pc|cJ|nt|ahollan1: so they're already doing better than the Canadian EW|pg||
nt|ahollan1: but @H played by West    so there is risk of @S ruff|pg||
nt|ahollan1: ZZ   simply  A=3 K=2 Q=1|pg||
nt|ahollan1: with trump lead can still make 12 tricks by guessing south singleton trump and ruffing finesses in @H|pg||
nt|ahollan1: is that reasonable play when contract is 5@D?|pg||
nt|ahollan1: elAhmady still playing   21|pg||
nt|ahollan1: rare situation having Muller table faster than other room|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 5@D was pushed  so only imps from 1st board of the set|pg||
nt|ahollan1: and potential swing here|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Brink opened south hand 3@S|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: many pairs playing 4@h on this board|pg||
nt|ahollan1: a number of pairs play "leaping Michaels" over 3-level preempts too|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: probably not being able to show a 2-suiter over a 3@s-opening|pg||
nt|ahollan1: including Sadek who alerted his 4@D overcall :)|pg||
nt|ahollan1: elAhmady bid 4@S and Brink 5@C!!|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: Sweden bid the slam so 13 imps in the bag|pg||

nt|ryskiel_: a nie lepiej by³o napocz¹æ dam¹ pik - partner z 10-k¹ by zachêci³|pg||
pc|dJ|nt|drorp: Israel defended and doubeled in both rooms on board 21, setting by 2 tricks both contracts, for a 13 imp swing|pg||

nt|ahollan1: impressive|pg||

nt|joanem: there now |pg||
nt|vugraphznz: sorry missed the trump play :(|pg||

pc|d8|pc|dQ|pc|d7|pg||
nt|xenya: now he will just take his 7 tricks, losing 1 imp|pg||

nt|vugraphznz: sorry imissed play...i will claim at the end|pg||
nt|joanem: ran 2nd trump to dummy;s 9 |pg||

pc|cQ|nt|drorp: east decided to upgrade his hand to an 18-19 balanced hand, not sure it would be my choice, but rebidding 2@C isn't that appealing either|pg||
nt|ahollan1: for me   south hand is either a 2@S or 2N rebid depending on partnership|pg||

pc|d2|nt|vugraphznz: 3 clubs to loose..and 2 spades...anything else?|pg||

pc|h6|nt|ahollan1: cover to encourage @C finesse??|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 3N East in other room, but still @S lead|pg||
nt|ahollan1: and i think same @C/@H layouts |pg||
nt|ahollan1: sorry   bad joke|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: might lead a heart first|pg||
nt|ahollan1: difference in other room though   @S to Queen Ace, lose @C, then @SK @S|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: if the Q loses, then try @hA to see if the J drops|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: and if not take the @c finesse|pg||
nt|mamos: good start for the defence|pg||
pc|h5|nt|odysseus69: the delay in the 4D bid suggests a possible doubt about the meaning of 4C - maybe I am completely wrong|pg||

nt|grebrof: can agree with you again Dror (maybe we should play together?) |pg||

nt|ahollan1: actually auction ruled out @C lead so McAvoy rebid over 2@H a winner|pg||

nt|drorp: :)|pg||
nt|mamos: lol   sweet :)|pg||
nt|kiwibridge: perhaps if he'd lead a club earlier|pg||
pc|dQ|nt|mamos: I do agree too - experts seem to upgrade for any reason -- " I had three fives?"  and when weaker players do it seems ineveiably to lead to trouble|pg||
nt|grebrof: the thing that maybe makes someone upgrade here, is the vulnerability + they might have an agreement always show 18 when they have 17 and a 5cardsuit|pg||
pc|d8|pg||
nt|barbyh: declarer can throw s in with a club to collect heart queen for d 1|pg||

nt|chmitty: le déroulé de la donne est exactement le même que dans l'autre salle ... no swing|pg||

nt|vugraphznz: ofc it's just a small chance - why not go for it?|pg||
mb|p|nt|yuval10: W took some view to leave 3@h X with 4-4 @s fit|pg||

nt|pawel90: 4@s chyba nie idzie po kierowym|pg||
nt|odysseus69: not the ideal dummy|pg||

nt|chmitty: ils ne sont pas partis pour en tout cas|pg||
mb|3S|nt|ahollan1: 1@S instead of DBL??|pg||

nt|meargent: EW need to find their @C ruff 2 beat this highly unlikely|pg||
nt|chmitty: elles pardon|pg||
mb|p|nt|lechcold: 4@S wygra lekko...chyba ¿e zostanie postraszony przebitk¹ karow¹|pg||
nt|lechcold: i zagra piki z góry|pg||
nt|brolucius: The same auction as on the other table, as you can see by moving your cursor over the Open Room result (top left).|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: board 29 +1 will correct|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Deas-Palmer play  "mini-multi"  aka Wagner   i wonder if either of them would have found the 3@H bid|pg||
mb|4C|nt|xenya: but it's a double-edged sword for sure...|pg||

nt|ritong: ton please|pg||
mb|p|nt|grebrof: I mainly lead offensively and I cant say that I have lost on it - I think its the same with these players: its better to lead something you have than lead something you dont want ...|pg||
nt|grebrof: your P to lead back - it is also easier for your P when it comes to defending if your leads are offensive|pg||

mb|p|nt|ahollan1: i don't see anything in CC to explain non-use of negative dbl|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: maybe they play DBL denies 4@s|pg||

nt|brolucius: mistakes, I will make the same prediction here.|pg||
mb|p|nt|mamos: n will surely bid 2@s|pg||
mb|p|nt|kiwibridge: well cashed for an imp|pg||
nt|ahollan1: right  but since CC says neg => 4@S  i would expect entry to show it does not apply here|pg||
nt|ritong: phew|pg||
pc|sK|nt|ritong: privet vlad|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 6@H did go down    making Sweden on wrong side of FOUR slam swings this match|pg||

pc|s4|pc|sT|nt|xenya: bounjour Henri|pg||
nt|mamos: loads of tricks now|pg||

pc|cK|nt|ritong: zack is trying to reconstitute the hidden hands  he has no chance to get that right imo|pg||
nt|ritong: declarer is supposed to hold 7 @hs, for starters|pg||
nt|xenya: settling for 2 off is not a problem here -- just ruff a club, losing a club and a trump -- but if he tries for something better he mat regret it|pg||
nt|ritong: his pard contributed @h Q on the lead, so no trump trick for his side|pg||
nt|yuval10: he thinks what's the likelyhood that his partner has a singel @d and that the K@d in his hand will vanish if he doesn't cash it|pg||

mb|1S|nt|ahollan1: i wonder if NS ever open 1N with 5-card major|pg||

nt|meargent: in OR canada cleverly found out they were short 2 aces and stopped at 5 level|pg||
nt|lechcold: nie bêdziemy siê k³ociæ:) tak by by³o|pg||
nt|granguru:  @D8 asked for a @H return, as there was a great danger of losing that trick in the @C suit length|pg||
mb|p|nt|drorp: some lazyness from Gino there, it's not like they're 20 mins late...|pg||
nt|grebrof: :)|pg||
nt|jbgood: guess a fit jump to 4@h was unavailable...|pg||
nt|odysseus69: forcing or semi-forcing|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 2@C=@H|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Palmer will now show 4-fit  but i don't know their step responses|pg||
mb|2C|nt|mamos: first in the restaurant for dinner?|pg||
nt|grebrof: how old are these guys anyway - I know Israel has a lot of talented juniors|pg||
nt|ahollan1: everyone will rue balancing|pg||
nt|brolucius: At the other table, in 4@H, declarer needed dummy's low trump for a spade ruff (the way the play had gone). Rosenberg made the good trump lead and continued trumps at the key ...|pg||
nt|brolucius: moment. Declarer had to win high in the dummy but played the four and then ran into a trump promotion.|pg||
nt|vugraphznz:  board 30 corrected|pg||
nt|starkist: 5 level at risk|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: 6 minutes playing time left|pg||

nt|ritong: fine move by north|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 2@C game force|pg||
nt|ahollan1: this mechanism means they'll have lots of room below game to learn no slam|pg||
nt|starkist: other room south must have got bergens mixed up to go slamming|pg||
mb|p|nt|ritong: needs guts to do that|pg||
nt|xenya: good decision by N not to compete further|pg||
nt|jbgood: GeO was not as tempted as Lall at the other table - and passed|pg||
nt|kiwibridge: a useful 8 to the Kiwi with 1 to play|pg||
nt|brolucius: Declarer has 4 tricks in the side suits and needs to add six trump tricks.|pg||
nt|ritong: 2@d 4SA|pg||
mb|2N|nt|drorp: interesting choice by Gino here, deciding to go slow so he can represent his shape, rather than making a wild preempt at a big level (like 5@D :))|pg||
nt|ahollan1: Sadek's PASS looks much better to me|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: de Wijs is known for his agressive bidding in competition, doesn't let the opps play at low level|pg||
nt|odysseus69: probably forcing|pg||
nt|joanem: 4s is aggressive thought she woudl bid 3s after 1n|pg||
nt|odysseus69: no bad breaks so no problems|pg||
nt|starkist: splinter|pg||
mb|p|nt|ahollan1: south must feel he hasn't shown his hand|pg||
nt|ahollan1: by at least a king|pg||
nt|ahollan1: in the other room  1N-3N   makes more sense to me|pg||
nt|granguru:  and even if it werent so, it shows a great defensive hability by the E player|pg||
nt|ritong: ou 2SA mini maxi|pg||
mb|3N|mb|p|nt|brolucius: 2@C was forcing to game, so East could bid 3@H on the next round.|pg||
mb|p|nt|drorp: Gino and Ronpa are both in early 30s, Gino ex junior for many years, i used to practice with him alot back in his junior days|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: what a lead :)|pg||

pc|d4|nt|vugraphznz: N asking about bids W..|pg||
pc|d2|nt|drorp: Ronpa is a big talent but started bridge somewhat late, so he missed on the junior circuit|pg||
nt|ahollan1: i would bet that Sadek is in the minority and that most won't be able to resist balancing DBL|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: needs to lead a trump to beat this, i think|pg||
nt|brolucius: Since the auction is forced to game, it can be difficult for the players to know if partner has extra values. 3NT is an important bid on the way to a major-suit game. The Serious ...|pg||
nt|brolucius: 3NT shows extra values during cue-bidding, the non-serious 3NT denies them. You can play it either way. |pg||

nt|yuval10: he didn't have an indication from the bidding|pg||

nt|ahollan1: 1@H actually could be 5@H 5@S|pg||

nt|pawel90: szlemik nie jest ³atwy|pg||

nt|meargent: unless the rules are changed|pg||

nt|drorp: needs to find another bid now|pg||
nt|drorp: very tough slam to bid, based on the 10 card diamond fit|pg||
nt|grebrof: hardly Chagas "duty" to bid slam, but I guess S has one more bid if Chagas can dig up some @d-support|pg||

nt|vugraphznz: wyniki kobiet: http://www.wkbridge2011.nl/en/live/scorebord-venice-cup|pg||
nt|chmitty: l'ouverture de 1@d en 3ème, que je trouve très normale, les a propulsées à 4@h|pg||
mb|p|nt|kiwibridge: Kevin was our great operator, apologies|pg||
nt|ahollan1: actually  1@H with 5@S may just apply to 1st/2nd seat|pg||
nt|vugraphznz: de Wijs passing, probably expecting 2@s with Muller, since the opps didn't overcall 2@s or raise to 3@s|pg||
nt|ahollan1: good stop|pg||
mb|2S|nt|xenya: that 5@C overcall is somewhat -- er -- exotic... |pg||
nt|drorp: great stuff from Chagas|pg||
nt|mamos: we'll never know|pg||
nt|drorp: passing the 4 level, impressive|pg||
nt|grebrof: I agree - very good bid|pg||
nt|drorp: 6@D coming now|pg||
nt|mamos: everything lies well for Slam here|pg||
nt|ritong: c est la vie|pg||
nt|ritong: la prochaine fois l entame @d battra leur manche|pg||
mb|3H|nt|lechcold: dziwny rebid Yokoi (2@S zamiast 1BA)|pg||

nt|drorp: woahh i didn't expect that|pg||
nt|brolucius: The defenders can make plenty of tricks at double dummy. Oh, a nice lead!|pg||

nt|alunand14: OMG :(|pg||
nt|alunand14: likely a slam @C|pg||
nt|mamos: South looks worth a nother try IMHO|pg||
nt|granguru:  agree|pg||
mb|p|nt|ryskiel_: jeszcze dziwniejsze 3@s|pg||
nt|yuval10: @s now ( more likely than @d ) means 4 off|pg||
nt|jfanha: vão perder 16-14 em vez de ganharem 18-12...acontece aos destemidos barrativos desta vida...|pg||
nt|drorp: partner went over 4 level, how can he not have 2 aces|pg||
nt|ahollan1: 2@D would have been weaker hand with @H/@S  [or strong with one minor]|pg||
nt|lechcold: w protokole rozd 32 w Open jest pomy³ka, proszê siê nie stresowaæ, to jest remisowe rozdanie:)|pg||

pc|d3|nt|ryskiel_: sztywna nadróbka|pg||
nt|barbyh: very aggresive bid by west|pg||
nt|brolucius: A spade switch would work well, as it happens. Then South could put two spades through. |pg||
pc|d5|pg||
nt|barbyh: all roads lead to down 2|pg||
nt|ritong: soyons optimistes|pg||
nt|chmitty: et c'est possible pour cette équipe : elles ne lacheront rien jusqu'à la dernière donne|pg||
