- Desambiguating a weak no trump situation
- Did I add that using LTC instead of judgment was my least favorite convention? Oh sorry; wrong thread...
- Desambiguating a weak no trump situation

- I AM SO Embarrassed!
- Where would you rank a Camrose match where with 11 trumps between the two hands a defender was allowed to score a trump from Jx when declarer didn't ruff high enough (worried about a 3--(1) trump break?)? England-Wales as I recall (and I'm sure I have many ...
