The following was played at the local duplicate club tonight. I may never get a hand this freaky as long as I play.
MP pairs, Red vs White:
In 4th seat you pick up:
S: AKQ98xxx
H: Void
D: Void
C: AKJTx
Auction is 2d (Weak) - pass - pass.
I bid a simple and pragmatic 6 spades, expecting a make, all pass.
Opening lead was the Ace of Diamonds.
Dummy comes down with:
S: Jx
H: xxx
D: KQJTxx
C: 9x
So 6 is ice cold as long as trumps aren't Txxxx, and clubs similarly split.
Making 7 when my LHO throws a club and allows me to drop the queen.
