Barclay on Bridge Misfit Dilemma and Strategic Caution
The article discusses the danger of misfit bids in bridge, stressing slow, cautious evaluation of partner suits. It analyzes a deal where South overcalls with 2 Diamonds and later moves to 5 Diamonds, then explains how misreading an opponent’s lack of heart support led to a poor contract.
