Another
deal from the Manchester Congress Pairs.
This
was an exciting board involving high level
decisions.
The
auction at our table is shown above.
North
first showed his club suit over the spade
raise and then bid 4NT to show a minor two
suiter with longer clubs over East's four
spades.
South
(who might have bid five clubs at his previous
turn, but may have been deterred by the
vulnerability) now bid five clubs.
East,
with plenty of distributional strength,
guessed to bid five spades.
South
now had a difficult decision. At teams
it would probably be best to bid six clubs,
taking out insurance in case either five
spades or six clubs is making.
Here
bidding six clubs was not so clear, but that
was his choice.
West
doubled six clubs and East quickly cashed her
major suit aces for one off.
This
scored about 80% for East West, the most
popular result being five spades going one
off.
