OK.  So I am awaiting the hand and the result.

As I am the only bidder among those who posted, and the comments from those at the table seem to indicate that the pass did not work, I would like to see the hand.

In no way does this indicate that I am a resulter.  No.  I would never say that.  Never.

So where is the hand?

Scoring: IMP


Yes, Phil made a good play of finessing the 9 of hearts on the first round. Next time I'll remember to hesitatte a bit before passing :)

Partner leads the King of spades. As declarer wins, dropping the Jack from his hand, you know you probably did the wrong thing here and it's further confirmed when declarer wins the first trump trick with the 9 :)

When I passed it appeared reasonable to me. But when you see -12.5 IMPs even on a filed like BBO, it makes you wonder. Only one other 4h opening when I saw it last, most people opening 3h and EW played in 3s.

Unfortunate but I still Pass. Not all doubled contracts go down.

Shame others wasted their time on something so completely obvious. <_<
