- The auction:
-
- 1D (1) - 1S (!) - X - 2S
- 3C - P - 3S - P
- 4C - P - 6C (all pass)
-
- (1) EW are playing Precision, and require a four card major in order to
- open 2C when holding only 5 clubs. Thus, the diamond opening frequently
- contains better clubs than diamonds.
-
- Down one when declarer failed to guess trumps. After ruffing the second
- spade, he played small to the king.
-
- Assign the blame among any or all of the following:
- East's bidding, West's bidding, the declarer play, bad luck, the opps
- having overcalled on a 4 card suit, and/or anything else you can think of.
