Scoring: MP

S - N
1NT-2♦*
2♥*-2♠*
2NT*-3♥*
3♠-4♣
4♦-6♦
6♥-pass


2♦= forces 2♥
2♥= forced
2♠= 5431 with 5M,4m
2NT= forced bid
3♥= 1534 or 1543

It took us only 6 months to get any use of this convention, after an auction that will be probably duplicated on every table you receive a ♠ lead, capturing the ♠Q, next comes a ♥ to the ♥A on wich West dicards a ♠

I lead the ten of clubs and duck it at trick 3. If they win I will just ruff 2 spades and finesse hearts twice. If opponents happen to be world champions and duck I will play diamond to the ace, spade ruff, CA, DK, diamond ruff, spade ruff, diamond ruff, HK, and lead a club to endplay them.

I agree with Justin, except I hope West isn't one of them brilliant Worldchampions, that ducked with ♣Kxxx.

If he did, RHO will also have to be a world champion and underruff while you crossruff at some point to avoid getting endplayed by ruffing his partners club queen.

You sure ?
Sounded like you are playing ♣10 in this holding.

Doesn't really matter what 3rd card East has, so i put it as a S

I think every line has a flaw, playing ♣10 has the flaw of a non world class defender having singleton ♣ :P

If you cared of it here is the full deal, almost anything you tried was bound to win, except ♦ finese if you ever though of it.
