Wayne found the going tough last night

Despite lining up with the all conquering in-form Paul Tranmer last night Wayne Sommerville failed to trouble the scorers too much. 36 imps in the out column ...thats about 3 nights worth of the conservative MrsT whose strength seems to be not letting much out and making great use of the international declaring skills of MisterT. Sometimes when he is declaring you can see him stopping to do his sums.

faela and mskenny  WIN  ...they might be from Cork


Here we see MrT2000 taking the low road. Hard to see what to do facing a 5 card spade opposite.
The man himself said ...should have bid 4S. I think bid 4!S and let them guess and let Wayne defend 5H for a big win. If Wayne gets it wrong we can give him a slap of our violin. 

 Here we see the great man declaring 3NT. Amazingly he does declare like a normal human being and fails to drop the club queen.
The 3rd of my hands sees the great man double a 2nd time but unfortunately Waynes opening suit bid caused the great man to find a lead that gives the contract.
This is a completely different MrT2000 then the all conquering car crusher that togs out with MrsT8686. This is a much reduced power MrT2000.

Then finally we reached board 13 and Waynes World opened up for business.
Grandmaster Tranmer roared in with a BJesque 3H bid and Wayne quietly waited for the opponents to bid the vulnerable game.. "we were vulnerable ..I had to bid it " ...and eased the hammer out of his kitbag and dropped it with a loud thud on the hapless fionuna and curragh8 ...probably landed on tranmer as well but Wayne did not care.
Down lots and 15 imps in the goodie bag. See Wayne knows how to play bridge.
