We lost 13 IMPs on this one. I could have described my hand better, by insisting on diamonds before giving up in 3NT. No thorough agreements for me and ritong, 2/1 std - that was it

IMO, when playing with a strange partner, especially against JEC, you should adopt a complete comprehensive on-line FD system-card. Any amendment, addition, or deletion to be agreed in writing before adoption.

Quite an interesting end position.
North has no club threat but is squeezed into discarding club from xxx to expose partner's Qx dropping.

Is it just me, or does this sound like a recommendation to use FD to cheat?
On the hand, I think Diana_Eva needs to show the six diamonds, either over 2C directly or by bidding 3D over 2nt.
