Bizarre Bridge Hand
     At the last hand of a bridge tournament, a kibitzer is asked to sit in for a player who has been 

     called away for an emergency. The kibitzer says he knows nothing about playing bridge. 

     They tell him to “just bid what you got and follow suit.” He sits South and begins the following bidding sequence:

                            South           West            North           East
                            1C              pass            2H              pass
                            2S              pass            3C              pass
                            3H              pass            4NT             pass
                            7D              Dbl             pass            pass
                            pass

      This is the deal:
                                
                                                    North
                                                    S-A9
                                                    H-AKQ65
                                                    D-AK
                                                    C-Q1054
                                 West                                  East
                                 S-KQ108                               S-76542
                                 H-J1097                               H-8
                                 D-Q10                                 D-J9
                                 C-KJ8                                 C-987632
                                                    South
                                                    S-J3
                                                    H-432
                                                    D-8765432
                                                    C-A

     South took the lead of the king of spades with the ace in the dummy, cashed the ace and king of trump, 

     came to his hand with the ace of clubs and played all his diamonds. On the last one, West was hopelessly 

     squeezed in hearts and spades, and ultimately discarded a heart, whereupon South made the last four 

     tricks in hearts. When the Opposition saw South's hand they called the Director, who asked South for an 

     explanation of his bidding. He got the following reply:

     “I was told to bid what I got, I had one club, two spades, three hearts and seven diamonds”.

     Karl, here is a man who knows the true value of bidding in bridge!!!

     Have fun, see you Monday.
