mb|p|nt|kit: Meckstroth has a good hand, but no convenient action|pg||
nt|me argent: just a question how many imps they will lose from about 10 to 18 imps|pg||
mb|2D!|nt|landen: quandary, hates 4 card overcalls and hates passing this much so doubled?|pg||
mb|p|nt|kit: Double is very dangerous with a stiff diamond|pg||

mb|2H|mb|p|nt|kit: but on a good day partner doesn't bury you with diamond bids|pg||

mb|d|nt|bigtrain: this is the way to show a 16-18 4-card @S raise|pg||

mb|p|nt|me argent: to everyone|pg||

mb|3H|nt|kit: not much the defense can do here|pg||
mb|p|mb|p|mb|p|nt|me argent: stansby knows despite his minimum he has great fitting cards 4 partner|pg||
nt|inquiry: no way for EAST to know about @CA I think, so this might be the end.. on the other hand,.... his partner has to be inviting 7 and he has AKQ of trumps.....|pg||
pc|h6|nt|kit: Best defense is actually a diamond shift, and hope declarer is unable to find his ninth trick|pg||
nt|bigtrain: 3 is a standard card... meckwell normally play upside-down carding|pg||
nt|bigtrain: this is an exception|pg||
nt|landen: Not likely looking at mech's heart holding|pg||
nt|kit: But on the auction, declarer can't very well get it wrong -- Meckstroth would be squeeze in 3 suits on the run of the diamonds|pg||
pc|h8|nt|me argent: he chickened out he knew it was rgt to bid with those @Ds but he just couldnt bring himself to do it|pg||
