Scoring: IMP


At our table it went

1♣-1♠-p-1NT-end

two top clubs, heart switch won by the ten, diamond switch, diamonds, top spades, ace of ♥, declarer concedes, -90 from our perspective. From the other table we got -150. Hmm. Our teammates defended 1NT after 1♣-1♠-1NT and let through 9 tricks. How do you think it happened? They didn't remember. I'm still guessing..
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

North cashed 3 clubs to start, and declarer got the diamonds right, scoring 2 top spades, 4 diamonds, 2 clubs, and the ace of hearts.

I think South made 1N+2 at the other table.

I would think spade lead to the Q and K, ♠A-oops (♦ pitch), heart switch to the J and A, heart back. South cashes two spades and West pitches a club, still thinking declarer has ♦A.

Wasn't too hard was it?

When he can see 4 clubs in dummy? But I can't think of anything else, I also started spade spade heart heart, so I guess that's what must have happened.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Agree.
Still decidedly intermediate - don't take my guesses as authoritative.
