So, anyone free and willing?

Phil, wanna team up with someone? If so pls post here.

400567 I know you're good, my robo-fan fellow, but these team matches are for BBO Forum members. Stick around, make a few posts, maybe answer some of other people's questions and then we'll be happy to put you on a team :)

I can play if needed. I might text my real life partner tomorrow to see if she is available (she's a non-forumer though), bit late in the night to do it now.

I have on-call duty this weekend. I could play (with Phil?) if there's a standby in case I have to work (I'd estimate about a 2% chance of that happening).

Thanks for giving us a shot. It felt like we were pretty unlucky at times. Most notably board 5:



This is effectively a 26 imp swing depending on if this makes or not with us being in 4H. What side of the fence would you want to be in just looking at the N/S hands?

That's not to say we didn't have our share of the luck either. We had a 6D off 2 key cards. Luckily one of the keys that were missing was the K and it was onside.



Maybe 4H from me is too much, maybe my partner should have cued 4S or just signed off, hard to tell, but finesse worked, forum is happy.

We had a few mistakes ourselves, probably the only really costly one being board 26 when I decided to check for a 4-4 spade fit helping the opponents. I was systemically forced to bid 3 (3S=MSS, 3NT=5S4H), but had the option of bidding 3N over 3.
