nt|roswolf:  follow your heart catherine the english fans are saying|pg||
nt|eamongall: I am hoping for Draper as I gave them some hands for bidding practice |pg||
nt|dburn: yes, but zilch to how many? if South is currently down to @hAJx and @dK, declarer had better play a diamond to the ace|pg||
nt|roswolf:  diamonds are a girl's best friend the french hope|pg||
nt|ritong: good point david|pg||
nt|dburn: which would also work if South is down to @dKx (but so would a heart to the ten in that case)|pg||
