In BWTA, too bad there is not an opening bid that avoids such problems when on is 4-5 in the majors.

Hi Bobby,

In the play hand, it is easier if dummy has CK not CA!

It is, but not in BWTA.

(That’s the point)

Hi You Three,

Yes, I talk to the trees, but they don’t listen to me so I feel compelled to suggest that Flannery will get you anywhere. Say it slow or say it fast but rest assured that I have won fewer than 2000 tournaments playing that lonesome (not loathe-some) convention.
