With opponents silent (my RHO the dealer, all VUL) the bidding went 1H-4C(splinter)-4D(cue)-4S(sA)-4NT(RKCB)-5D(0 or 3 KC)-7H (figuring with a ten card fit I did not care about HQ).

A club was led, I drew trump in two rounds ending in dummy (RHO pitching a diamond!, although with diamonds 4-4 nothing he did mattered) I ruffed a diamond, ruffed a club, ruffed a diamond, ruffed a club, and the Ace of diamonds dropped the King and I got rid of my spade guess. +2210 or 97.55%

Welcome to Ramesh's BRIDGE BLOG

In these pages, I comment on hands from Bridge Base Online ACBL tourneys. I play in these with a variety of partners with different degrees of skill. I might present a hand or two from my collection of bridge books, every now and then. I am more interested in play and defense than in complex bidding systems, but I do follow the cut and thrust of Vanderbilt and World Championship Vugraph and try to keep abreast of expert practice in the obstructive and constructive bidding system department. I may also feature, newspaper-style, famous hands from important matches that I saw on Vugraph.

NOTE: For JUNE, I am experimenting with adding BBO's Handviewers, which make bridge movies embedded. Just
scroll down beyond the few sampled book covers and you arrive at the blogs that play themselves with the NEXT button. THANKS, BBO!!
