This morning I spotted a lad holding a solid diamond suit AKQJxxxx and nothing outside. At the odd table in the odd club I direct in the West might consider passing as he only has 10 points.
However our Magician deems it a 2C opening ...the real deal
So the partner opens a full blooded 2C bid and the other partner bids the hearts and then rolls out the cannon 4NT ... We call it the Cannon as it kind of looks like a cannon and is called Blackwood.Then after getting the AKQ of trumps it bid 6NT.
Happily the opps did not find the club lead but sadly there were only 11 tricks
Still the folks got 12.5% for their efforts
There is no bridge book that exists where this is deemed a 2C opening so our Magician needs a new wand .. At least he was not peeking like some folk do
As my old friend Sally used to say plus in part score beats down in slam ...
