  • Interests:My personal interests are my family and my friends. I am extremely concerned about the lives and futures of the kids (and their families) that I work with. I care about the friends I have made on BBO. Also, I am extremely concerned about the environment/ ecology/ wildlife/ the little planet that we call Earth. How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?

5C
I don't know what the correct bid is. Perhaps 5C would imply good club controls (even if it was interpreted as lead directing) and show a stronger hand with club cards while 4NT would also show unusual distribution but deny the club ace? Who dealt this mess, anyway?

5♦, again not playing for the perfect hand (after all he didn't bid something stronger than double)

As the match had gone, if I bid 5♦ on this one, I would likelly score +550, bidding 5♣ might alert West of what is going on and will probably end on 'only' +400 or +200.

But this wasn't my match at all, I bid 6♦ wich again was incredibly doubled by west, finding his partner with the setting trick. -100, and the ♣ position makes 5♥/♠ unmakeable <_<.

6D indeed looks like Junior's choice. I must say I am too old for it.
