MP, robot tourney, best hand South.


Trick 1: ♠9, ♠6, ♠A, ♠Q
Trick 2: ♣K, ♣3, ♣9, ♣8
Trick 3: ♣A, ♣5, ♣7, ♣J
Trick 4: ♣T, ♣Q, ♦3, ♠7
Trick 5: ♠4, ♠2, ♠J, ♠T
Trick 6: ♥Q, ♥K, ♥A, ♥4
then clear H and effectively claim, +400

So ...
Very lucky not to sustain ♣ lead at trick 1. Do you agree with the explanation of the 2♠ bid (specifically the "3+ C" bit)?

I don't think that North should assume that I have 18+ HCP as well as 3+ H, given that I accepted the transfer. But if North had interest in game, why pass 2♥?
