A few undertricks

Post by rod »

Here's a curious deal from the 2024 Country Teams Zonal Final in NSW Australia. Round 9 board 18. I sat East.



We play transfer responses so partner's 1 call showed hearts. Systemically partner should have passed, but noticing the vulnerability didn't want to give the opponents an easy entry to the auction. The bluff worked.

You can use the Next button to follow the play. In the end I was strip-squeezed and could only manage two tricks!

I was fine with -250 because the opponents had a vulnerable game, eleven tricks double dummy.
