I have to give the line-up to susi. I'll tell her:

gszeszycki + jinksy
nige1 + sakuragi

If you wanna switch go ahead, no problem and let susi know.

Good luck team!

Thank you for the game team-mates. And thanks to Diana_eva for organising it. It was fun!

Here is one of several deals from the JEC match, on which I failed to star in the bidding or the play.

How should I have bid it?

You are East, declarer in a daft 5♣ contract, South leads a ♦ to North's ♦J and you ruff. You cash ♥A. When you lead ♥K, LHO ruffs with ♣2.

I misplayed the contract but, on the actual layout, you can't make..

On the imaginary layout on the left, GIB says defenders can still succeed, but declarer can put South to the test, because he has to be careful.

I watched this. I thought the bidding was fine up to 4 ♥ but 5 ♣ was strange.

Tricky Defence.

Adjusted to make South declarer.

Please press Next .


Pivot Squeeze.

Adjusted to make South declarer.
LHO led ♦K (ducked) and switched to ♣2.
I settled for 9 tricks -- all that I can make on the actual layout (where East held ♥KQxxx)..
If the layout had been as on the left, however, then you can make the contract, by an unusual squeeze. that I call a pivot squeeze (♥T is the pivot).

Please press Next
