&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; hand=&quot;s:qj2.aj4.aq9.j143:k76.85.852.ak985:5.k1962.k143.q72:a19843.q73.j76.6:show.show.show.show:on:w::p.p.2d.2n1.p.3d.p.3h.3s.3n1.p.p.p....&quot; src=&quot;/.ee7feeb/cmd.233/embedded..ee7ff01&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After two passes and the dreaded multi 2 diamonds, I didn't have enough for a 2NT bid, but since LHO was a passed hand and the vulnerability was favorable, I felt that &lt;img width=&quot;12&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;bridgeIcon&quot; src=&quot;http://64.62.189.162/Images/m/WebXeditor/gadgets/bridge/i2.gif&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: -2px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;22&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;bridgeIcon&quot; src=&quot;http://64.62.189.162/Images/m/WebXeditor/gadgets/bridge/int.gif&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: -2px;&quot; /&gt; was more representative than the classic double with a balanced 13-15.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;West led the &lt;img width=&quot;12&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;bridgeIcon&quot; src=&quot;http://64.62.189.162/Images/m/WebXeditor/gadgets/bridge/ic.gif&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: -2px;&quot; /&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;12&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; class=&quot;bridgeIcon&quot; src=&quot;http://64.62.189.162/Images/m/WebXeditor/gadgets/bridge/ik.gif&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: -2px;&quot; /&gt; and switched to the unreadable low spade. East made a good play by ducking and now the ball was in my court...</description>

<description><![CDATA[Great analysis -
I played some bridge sessions a few years ago with Doug Dang, an excellent San Francisco Bay Area bridge player who recently passed away. Doug had played on some teams with Bob in the past and paid Bob the highest complement when he stated: "Just put Bob in 3NT and you can count on getting a top or close to top on the board every time" This analysis is just one example of Doug's comment about Bob's incredible ability.]]></description>
