Roman and Janusz, using the Polish Club system bid this slam very effectively. Roman choosing 6 clubs rather than 6NT for safety.

Well done those who bid and made 6NT.

What happened at your table?

Jeff opened 1NT and I could see slam possibilities . I bid stayman and found Jeff had no 4 card major. I then wanted to bid 4NT (quantitative) but we hadn't agreed this so I signed off in 3NT. Early in the play Jeff led a spade to the K but understandably didn't then return to hand and lead a spade to the Q as East might have ducked the Ace. So he made 11 tricks. 6C always makes but 6NT depends on where the AS is.    John S

6C is a great contract and I wish I'd explored it. Just because it makes 6NT is a poor contract to get into in my opinion. A quantitative inquiry from responder should be rejected with only 13 HCP. It's a borderline inquiry anyway. 

I went for a stayman inquiry first and after a 2D reply, I bid 4NT and Malcolm correctly left it. Had he come back with a H response to stayman I might have then bid clubs to see what happened or actually punted 6NT which would have worked but wouldn't have been something to be proud of. As Roman said afterwards, I should have tried clubs anyway after his 2D response and he's right. Not quite sure how Malcolm would have taken that sort of continuation so something to discuss‎
