Overbids pave way to penalty in bridge analysis

North Opens Then Overboard Bid Dings Score

North as873 J84 10732 AQ4 3- .Dble Pass Opening lead and Q free bidder North tried four hearts just because every one wants bidding and it was his turn. OSWALD East would have made four spades if he chose to bid it but East did not know that so he passed. West doubled and South had no place to go but down. Jim The actual slaughter was terrific. Spades were opened and continued after South ducked. South won the second spade laid down his king of hearts and continued with a heart to dummy's jack while West played low. A diamond was led and South's queen fell to West's ace. the six of clubs produced dummy's queen and East's king East led another spade. South ruffed low and West over ruffed with the nine. This gave the defense four tricks and South still had to lose the ace of trumps and a club. Oswald Down 800 was a mighty large penalty to pay for a couple of mild overbids. Of course South could have saved one trick had he played the hand perfectly but even 500 would have been far too much to trade for a part score.
