USBF session one:
Deal 1 - East declared 4 clubs. Down 1. Par was 3 spades E/W. Wrong contract.
Deal 2 - North declared 5 spades. Made. Par was 5 diamonds x -2 E/W & 4 spades N/S.
Deal 3 - East declared 3 NT. Down 2. Par was 3 spades E/W.
Deal 4 - South declared 3 spades. Made. Par was 3 NT E/W & 0 spades N/S! A two-sided disaster.
Deal 5 - West declared 3 clubs. 2 over. Par was 5 minor E/W. Missed E/W game.
Deal 6 - North declared 3 NT. Down 2. Par was 3 NT N/S.
Deal 7 - North declared 4 spades. 1 over. Par was 5 clubs x -2 E/W & 4 spades N/S.
Deal 8 - North declared 5 clubs. Made. Par was 5 clubs N/S.
Deal 9 - East declared 3 NT. Down 1. Par was 2 NT E/W.
Deal 10 - West declared 6 clubs. Down 1. Par was 5 NT E/W.
Deal 11 - North declared 4 hearts doubled. Made. Par was 4 hearts.
Par predicted 8 deals were E/W’s. N/S declared 6 deals; made 5.
Think of all the USBF report pages I could have saved so far!
I suggest the card play of each deal has de minimus meaning concerning
any possible “unauthorised information” available to N/S.
Not knowing anything at all about the other half of the N/S team, it
looks to me like the N/S team should be off to a terrific start.
