General word of caution Pedro: Listen when other players offer advice, but do not accept it for truth until you have verified it.

Hi,

;)

I understand what you are saying to me :(

at the moment, I prefer the attitude that everything said is need to read and taken nore and study, and learn tool... Then I will try to see what went wrong and what I did right...

But I will try to keep your advice in the back of my ear :blink:

the europeans seem to use 2NT in stayman to show both majors

my mother plays in england and that is the way she was taght to play it

Some Europeans maybe. I know some teached like that in Norway too, but that's a long time ago.
Kind regards,
Harald

BTW, just because it goes down, doesn't mean it's the wrong bid. Notice that 3NT is the most common contract on the traveler. There are lots of hands she could have had where 3NT would be the right contract. And notice that 2 pairs actually did make it (one with overtricks!).

hi,

far from me to say it's the wrong bid :)

Just that it probably go down with proper defense, I think...

The biding it's probably the best contract 3NT, my only fear was the singleton A♥...
