My partner ibraves and I would like a chance to play. We missed out a few times ago because JEC was having connexion issues. Also is there a thread documenting past teams and scores? Would be an interesting read.

What was the score (and could we please post the final score after each match)?
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Thanks a lot Mike - really enjoyed it and we were in the lead for a while!

Score was 69-30 to JEC. Was pretty close till board 18 after which we gave away 3 vulnerable game swings in a row and it was all over. This was my own contribution:

I misled (should lead the Ace by partnership agreements) and so I thought that partner's 10♦ was an unambiguous signal for a ♠ continuation whereas he was just giving reverse count... 13 IMPs away.

If partner has the ♠K, is a spade switch required?

Yeah it was weird that you lead a trump there.
I mean im no one to judge here. We played terribly.
In one board i should just have opened 1NT with all the controls. But no i did not and we had a misunderstanding with our trialbids.
And our defense wasnt the best that day.
Still i think we could easily beat them any other day. The team was good and if we have a change again we will take the victory off the battlefield
