Free and I just perpetrated the following auction
The results were far from perfect (we missed 2 bids on the way to 3NT)
Still, MOST amusing



Auction

1 - 1
1 - 1
1N - 2
2 - 2
2 - 2N
3 - 3
3N

After lots of relays, my 3 bid show 1=3=6=3 shape
3N denies 10+ slam points and there we played

Some day I'll have a 3=2=6=2 and those last two bids will fall...

On a couple of occasions, my FP partner and I have had auctions where he has alternated between clubs and hearts and I have alternated between diamonds
and spades, all the way up to the 6 or 7 level. That long string of bids on the
table alternating colors is quite aesthetically pleasing.

Yes, specially with all those nice shiny doubles in the middle :-)
