Bridge hand bidding and opening lead record
The diagram shows Oswald and James Jacoby on a BBO style deal. West opens one diamond or one club and South responds with two spades. The auction continues with a sequence ending in four by West and a pass by all others. Opening lead is shown as the initial trick.
Gulpic Bid Echoes in Bridge Club Telegram
West opens with a gulpic bid and North doubles rather than overcalling. East's standard diamond bid follows as bidding proceeds normally until West's risky three club bid. South counters by drawing trumps, discarding, and exploiting West's king spade while forcing action to cap the play.
