MP, best hand South, instant, pro gib 30.
I misplayed it for 5 off. 4 down would have made quite a difference as there were a few going 2 down in 2D doubled, replicating -500.
I should of course have passed throughout having opened 1C. But the interesting point to the hand is my accurate prediction that they would not double 3C.
And what a routine X he had, too.
