Inbridge bid misfire ends with down two
Jacoby on Bridge analyzes a three no trump contract where East responds two clubs to the opening spade bid and then three no trump after West refrains. The play sees South's opening club bid deterring a club lead, cautions from dummy, and a sequence of heart and spade maneuvers that give North three hearts and the club ace, yielding down two. With vulnerability, America gains 100 AG or three MPs.
