My rushes of blood to the head in bidding when I hold a big hand are well-documented. Here is a case in point. My one heart opening on a control heavy 4=5=4=0 was hardly worth a re-raise to SIX after I received a ONE to FOUR raise which can be made on any five carder. Still, this was a tournament of 15 table, and hope typically springs (eternally) at six hearts (pun intended) out of 15.
The lead bore me a badly needed trick, I will take the West player out to a treat, oh wait, he was a BBO robot? Now, I ruffed out the marked DK, eliminated the side suits having drawn trump and simply hoped for Hx Hxx in spades, when a) an overtake would not work or my J would set up, b) one player gets endplayed to give me a ruff sluff. A hand to tell one's grandchildren about. The same lead, three tables managed to go down
