FWIIW This is the full deal. Our team mates are very strong players (the stronger pair) and our opposition was not strong. So when we miss a good game, particularly when weaker opps bid and make it, it hurts. Yes the unlikely diamond lead will hold it to 9 tricks.

Thanks for all the views. Much appreciated.

First of all you clearly want to be in 3nt with these hands. I know you are white but still a nice 15 count with a KQJxx facing a 10 pts with 4 clubs support and AKxx. You wont win many Imps matches if you missed those games.

If you dont know what responding to 1C in Walsh style is ? Check it out. Maybe its the perfect thing for you.

The other thing if you are an advanced partnership is to play 4th suit as always INV.

If you want more details send me a personnal message and ill be glad to send some links to you.

Bottom line is we never let that difference of opinion interfere with anything."
