- 01:12:19 [sbp]
- no need for the %s in there
- 01:12:43 [BenSw]
- why?
- 01:12:53 [BenSw]
- is it already in me
- 01:12:56 [sbp]

- 17:41:16 [jillium]
- Oh, it's just great.
- 17:41:18 [rik]
- what was it?
- 17:41:27 [jillium]
- So yestdrday I went to a games party.
- 17:41:33 [rik]
- * rik nods
- 17:41:54 [jillium]
- And ended up playing bridge for several hours with one of my coworkers and two people from Berkeley.
- 17:42:04 [rik]
- * rik nod
- 17:42:08 [jillium]
- Both of whose email addresses I now have for future bridge games.
- 17:42:17 [jillium]
- But there was this one hand I wanted to tell you about.
- 17:43:00 [rik]
- * rik listens
- 17:43:37 [jillium]
- I was holding eleven or twelvish points, and all four of us were bidding. My partner and I found a spade fit, but our opponents bid to 3NT.
- 17:43:54 [jillium]
- I looked at my hand and saw this in spades: KQJ9.
- 17:44:11 [rik]
- * rik smiles
- 17:44:22 [AaronSw-CA-US]
- jillium!
- 17:44:24 [jillium]
- I considered four spades, but an angry little voice jumped up and said NO. KILL. So I said double.
- 17:44:31 [jillium]
- Hi, AaronSw!
- 17:44:35 [rik]
- * rik nodnod
- 17:44:53 [jillium]
- My partner later told me that he had been planning to bid four spades, but instead he passed my double.
- 17:45:04 [jillium]
- I led the king and lost to the enemy ace.
- 17:45:33 [jillium]
- (my holdings outside spades were unimpressive but adequate: one king and one ace)
- 17:45:43 [rik]
- * rik nods
- 17:45:44 [jillium]
- (which is another reason I wasn't as excited about 4spades)
- 17:46:49 [jillium]
- One of the outside holdings won, and then I led the queen. Then the jack. Then I held my breath and led the nine. And YES! My partner played the ten and followed with two or three more spade tricks! PERFECT!
- 17:47:05 [jillium]
- We set 3NT doubled by four tricks! Something like 1100 points!
- 17:47:05 [rik]
- hmmm
- 17:47:08 [jillium]
- ROWR!
- 17:47:11 [rik]
- indeed.
- 17:47:14 [rik]
- * rik rowrs also.
- 17:47:21 [jillium]
- I find good defense extremely stimulating.
- 17:47:41 [rik]
- the 10 on the 9 was disappointing though
- 17:47:46 [jillium]
- No, it was perfect.
- 17:47:56 [jillium]
- I would never have been able to get into his hand if he hadn't played it.
- 17:48:01 [rik]
- true
- 17:48:03 [rik]
- it's still annoying
- 17:48:05 [jillium]
- It was _perfect_.
- 17:48:13 [rik]
- because the 10 was the highest spade at that point
- 17:48:21 [rik]
- and since your partner had it, the 9 was a winner
- 17:48:21 [jillium]
- No, it was precisely what I was hoping for, because it maximized our spade tricks.
- 17:48:40 [jillium]
- rik: the point was to get control to my partner becuase I had no more spades, and he did.
- 17:48:44 [rik]
- yes, indeed.
- 17:48:48 [rik]
- i know wht the point was
- 17:48:59 [rik]
- it's just annoying that they had to put a winner on another winner.
- 17:49:12 [jillium]
- What difference does it make?
- 17:49:28 [rik]
- not a lot, if you had no other way into their hand
- 17:50:21 [jillium]
- Since all 2 or three of my partner's low spades were made good, we got every single trick we could possibly get in spades. He won the last two with a six and a three or somethign like that.
- 17:50:47 [rik]
- aha
- 17:50:49 [rik]
- fair enough then
- 17:51:16 [jillium]
- Nothing like a good fuck you double followed by perfect defense to really make one's night.
- 17:51:21 [rik]
- * rik nods
- 17:51:28 [rik]
- it's been ages since i've played.
- 17:51:35 [jillium]
- Must Play!
- 17:51:40 [rik]
- yes.
- 17:51:48 [jillium]
- AaronSw-CA-US: where are you now?
- 17:51:56 [rik]
- get your butt over to england. i know two other people that can play!

- Though I'll have to learn ACOL.
- 17:52:36 [rik]
- ACOL. Tcha.
- 17:52:40 [rik]
- Instinct!
- 17:53:02 [jillium]
- Instinct is much supplemented by an understanding of a common bidding system between partners. :-)
- 17:53:17 [jillium]
- AaronSw-CA-US: cool. We're on for lunch tomorrow?
- 17:53:31 [AaronSw-CA-US]
- Yep.
- 17:53:47 [rik]

- heh. how?

- I have two friends who moved here from London, and last time I moved I asked them if they had spare boxes.
