Hand #1:



Club lead. Down two.

Hand #2:



This one had play for a moment. Diamond lead to Queen (winning), spade to Queen and King. Diamond back to Ace. Spade Ace, LHO showing out. Rather unlucky.

Hand #3:



Flannery was in play, so 1♠ showed 5+, in case that explanation helps to understand the sequence better. After a club lead, Declarer won and played back a club, won by LHO. LHO tried to cash the heart Ace, ruffed by Declarer, A club ruff (splitting 3-3) was following by pulling trumps and claiming for two overtricks.

Both partners in these three auctions were high flight players. so, maybe it is too advanced or too expert for the casual observer to follow?

No, i think its more of a proof of how the masterpoint system is screwed up which allows these guys to play in high flights.

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

Sort of like, "If you have to ask about the auction, you wouldn't understand"?

I question the competency of the players involved here, based on the examples given.

Good science there.
"Champions aren't made in gyms, champions are made from something they have deep inside them - a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. " - M. Ali
