Not particularly competent.

An illustration of competence can be found in the hands played before this post series:-

First board at table

Second hand (4 mins later)

Final hand (another 4 mins later)

I would argue that this is the type of play that should lead to the suspension of an account on BBO but I understand why this is not done given how easy it is to create additional accounts and switch.

Happy New Year everyone!

As for the first board, I think Hanlon's Razor applies.

Sometimes you don't have to petulantly bid 7NT. Sometimes 6NT is enough.

Seems a bit stroppy for Hanlon's Razor.
