HAND OF THE WEEK

Our bidding was very straightforward.

I know Natasha tends to bid a jump support on quite strong hands so I was tempted to explore a slam but my hand all felt a bit flat.

On a spade lead giving us an over trick Iwas pleased when I saw dummy as I could see no way of making a 12th trick unless the defence threw the wrong cards, which of course they didnt

What happened at your table?

Hand 10 is maybe another one for hand of week. We tried a slam and made 11 hearts. Everybody else in 4 hearts making the same 11. Hence we got an absolute bottom. Yes it does rely on making the spade finesse but the problem is very unusually, the hands are mirrored with each hand having 5 hearts, 3 spades, 3 diamonds and 2 clubs. You are missing ace diamonds and also have a losing club which can't be discarded. We were brave but I think also a bit unlucky.
