Only E and G the same as Jock.
PROBLEM A: Pass, sure an underbid but other options lack appeal.
PROBLEM B: 4 Hearts, considered 3NT but both options give up on slam.
PROBLEM C: 3 Diamonds, can always bid 4H next time.
PROBLEM D: (c1), nothing looks particularly savoury.
PROBLEM E: 3 Spades, would accept 3D at IMPs.
PROBLEM F: 3 Diamonds, at least this is forcing, preparatory for settling for 3NT.
PROBLEM G: 4 Clubs, middle of the road action?
PROBLEM H: Spade 9, the unbid suit but a gambling club might strike gold.
Anyone know who's running the IAC club now that Sanja seems to be full-time
employed by BBO? Can't do a session next week because of undergoing cataract
surgery - and didn't run a play & discuss session last month because of being
out of town. (Email:
