South's hand
Scoring: IMP


Opened 1♠ made 4 (as did most of the field except one south who bid 4♠) when North had singleton K♠ and spades broke 3-3. Should you really chance 2♣- doesn't need much for 4♠ or even 5♦?

Easy 1♠ opener. The fact that partner produced the most useful card he could have and game was still pretty poor should tell you something.

Edited out nonsense.

1S, not close!
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

2♣ is way out there wrong I'd say. Not quite sure why this is in this forum.

Don't be a resulter, open 1♠!

Agree easy 1♠, but pd might have had ♠Kx and out which would have made game pretty good.

Occasionally we miss out on games, but so does almost everybody else.

1♠ please. everything else is from another dimension.

Note that bidding 6♦ here would be bad because our spades are not solid enough.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.
