I think there is 1 or 2 pixels difference between underlined q and g. I don't have very good eyesight but I see something.
Pass or Correct?

I always though aqua as well, but because in spannish the correct translation to waterman would be more like hombreagua

You're right, gwnn. I have no excuse.

This was my one 'flyer' of the event. It's always frustrating when you make an aggressive bid that seems destined to work only to be derailed by partner.
I held:
♠x ♥QTx ♦AQJTxx ♣KJT
IMO I'm about a ♦Q->♦K upgrade away from having made a normal aggressive bid and a ♦J->♦K upgrade away from having made a normal bid. This looks like a hand that wants to play in 3N on a ♣ lead opposite a random hand and if you don't bid it now, you often won't get there.
Pard's 4♠ bid with minimal thought was a disappointment. He should know a ♣ ruff is coming on opening lead. I apologized at the table (and still deserve a good portion of the blame for taking a flyer.) (RHO had Kx of ♦ and ya they can still hold me to 8 tricks but they weren't going to.) 4♠ drifted off 3 (we were never winning the board as our teammates brought back -500.)
