JOE DELL: (cross-referenced to Emil Jensen, Bill Kreps, and Allan Stauber)
N (uncertain, but probably Kreps), E (Dell), S (Stauber), W (Jensen). Matchpoints.
The first part of the auction:
| East | South | West | North |
| 1♣ | X | Pass | 1♠ |
| Pass | 2♣ | — | — |
| X |
Stauber: Director!
Jensen (to Dell): You don’t have to double to get me to lead YOUR suit, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE TO DOUBLE OUT OF TURN TO DO IT!
Based on this development, I later decided to play 3N instead of the normal 4♠ contract. I knew that we could gain the critical tempo that we needed for that contract by barring a club lead. TOP!
