Big changes in Big Easy for Final Four
Dawn Staley notes the 1991 New Orleans Final Four felt old school as the event returns to the city with sold out arenas. LSU Minnesota Tennessee and Connecticut head to the New Orleans Arena for semifinals Sunday and final Tuesday, with Hoop City and strong TV ratings marking the event's growth. The NCAA subsidizes tournament expenses while TV revenue funds broader costs, signaling expanding profits but uneven gains across years.

Be sure to raise to two notrump after partner overcall
With partner showing one notrump 16 to 18 points and a diamond stopper, bid two notrump to invite three. For two hearts, a weak hand with five or more hearts, play two hearts to signal safety over one notrump and seek a better contract with partner.
Bidding Quiz Three Diamonds And Notrump Decisions
Bridge notes discuss cuing with four-card major after West's bid, then three notrump against notrump hands. It analyzes three hearts as a game-going bid with eight-card major fits and distribution 2 6 1 4, arguing to jump to four hearts now rather than delay. Tomorrow topic is hot potatoes.
