I could also have shown my two-suiter via 3C, suggesting a 5-4 and 16+ points (reverse bid), but I feared that I would have difficulties to show my sixth spade later without the dustbin bid of 3S. My coach Wilfried Libbrecht told me that I should have started with 3C anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over <strong>2S, 3S by Clara<\/strong>: it sets spades as trumps and shows ambitions for slam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I show my <strong>first control with 4C<\/strong> (3NT would show a hand not as good as mine, which is really nice given the information I have shared with my partner so far).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5C by Clara.<\/strong> I interpret it as an Exclusion Blackwood with Clubs. It is a Key Card Blackwood (trump Ace and King) from which the Ace of Clubs is excluded. The Exclusion Blackwood is used when you have a void in the suit. You usually play 30-41 responses over 5C. I have 2 key cards (Ace and King of Spades) to show. Out of habit, <strong>I bid 5H, forgetting that I must switch to another suit!<\/strong> Indeed, 5D would show 0 key cards, 5H 1 and 5S both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But how to make up for it?<\/strong> I thought that having a nice hand, I could just bid one level higher over my partner\u2019s response, i.e. 6S over 5S. <strong>But 6S comes! I decide to bid 7 anyway<\/strong>, trying to correct my previous bad response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dummy comes down after a heart lead, which makes me choose my line of play within the next second: <strong>the chances that West underled his King of Hearts are very low,<\/strong> so I decide to win with the Ace of Hearts directly, play the Queen of Hearts covered by the King in East, King of Clubs ruffed in dummy and Jack of Hearts to discard the losing Diamond in my hand. A double ruff follows for a contract just made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>On a lead other than a heart, a club for instance, I would have had much more trouble to choose<\/strong> between the diamond finesse, the heart ruffing finesse and the heart finesse!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-2-753x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76351\" style=\"width:377px;height:512px\" width=\"377\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-2-753x1024.jpg 753w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-2-221x300.jpg 221w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-2-768x1044.jpg 768w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-2.jpg 1046w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 377px) 100vw, 377px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Clara Bouton and Margaux Kurek-Beaulieu vice-world champions U26W in Veldhoven<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-3-733x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-76352\" style=\"width:367px;height:512px\" width=\"367\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-3-733x1024.jpg 733w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-3-215x300.jpg 215w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-3-768x1073.jpg 768w, https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mkb-veldhoven-photo-3.jpg 796w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 367px) 100vw, 367px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Margaux Kurek-Beaulieu on her way to the silver medal in Veldhoven<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What do you think of this article by Margaux Kurek-Beaulieu ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Share your opinion with the Funbridge Team and other bridge players in the &#8220;Comments&#8221; section below!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Back to Veldhoven for the most important event: the World Youth Teams Championships.
