I was even more disappointed to find that 6 out of 30 in my section had bid the unmakeable slam but only my East bot managed to defend
I include the bidding of the different options in the hope someone can advise on where I went wrong Sometimes I think this site is very authoritarian or moralistic or dictatorial. You didn't bid the way we like so we will punish you.

The other five tables had South bidding 1 spade and making the decision to go to slam. That's the difference And on those tables the bot switches to a club on trick 2
I know I have problems with Soloway bids but this seemed perfect even with just AKQJx. Nice 2-suiter, support for diammonds, very nice spades
I should have just bid 1S and headed for game which is how I thought it would end up
Before anyone has a go I was disappointed when we ended up in 6 and not unhappy at the Bot finding the obvious defence. Sad that it couldn't find it for anyone else
I thought maybe my bid distorted the possible distributions but no, my hand is dummy. Look the Possum doesn't just have a singleton loser in hearts. He has two
Maybe my bidding distorted the possible shape of North (the hidden hand) but look at it
So how come my bidding resulted in the obvious defence but nobody else's did
So I'm thinking it thinks that the North bot ducked the Ace on trick one. But maybe in that case there is a chance of a ruff in hearts
LOL I have too many emoticons. I had no idea there was a limit on emoticons ROFL
What do I keep doing SAD
