Trump leads and crossruff swing semi final bridge deal
In Bermuda's world championship semifinal between Denmark and the United States Jill Meyers and Randi Montin faced a four notrump unusual notrump sequence. After a double by Meyers and a trump lead, Irene Bilde's defense held to six trumps and the ace of spades, yielding a down four for 800 points. At the other table the US pair again bid similarly, West’s king spade lead allowed a crossruff by Mancuso, finishing down one minus 50 for the Americans, a 750 point net gain and a 13 IMP swing.
