Bermuda Bowl 2007, RR # 2, USA2 vs Sweden, Board 6. EW vul.

In the open room, Nystrom (East) dealt and passed.

Meckstroth (South) held JT53 AQ93 974 K3.

P ?

1D!

kareno: Meckwell are paring down their opening bids to the barest minimum.

kit: opening 1D 11-15 -- supposedly

icesleepy: That is a light 1D opening, making it harder for EW to compete

Walddk2: Where is the 11th?

kareno: 4-4 in the majors is the 11th.

icesleepy: What ever happened to opening + opening = game?

kit: with them, it might mean opponents have game

After p 1D p 1S : p 2S p p : ?, Nystrom balanced with 2N and EW ended up in 5CX-1 after a bidding mixup.

In the closed room, Morath opted to pass with Meckstroth's hand and EW ended up in 3C+1.

8 IMPS to USA2.
