A cute problem from this weekend's regional.

AJ9x-A-KQJx-Kxxx, IMP's.

1♦-P-1♠-P-?

Too strong and too wrong for a Splinter; 4♠ preempts us.

3♣-P-4♣-P?

Very interesting now. Out-of-focus major is RKCB for the minor. If partner's clubs are AQxx, I'd prefer that strain.

4♥-P-4♠(1430)-P-?

I need the trump Queen. 4NT signs off, so...

5♦-P-6♣-P-?

Now, I know that spades is the best trump suit after all...

6♠-P-P(after confused look)-P.

Scoring: IMP


Just about to be expected, although the diamond 10 is much better than leading toward dummy twice.

I think one defensive line beats this, but not sure. Both black suits split 3-2.
"Gibberish in, gibberish out. A trial judge, three sets of lawyers, and now three appellate judges cannot agree on what this law means. And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."
