( After opening 1C on a flat 3442 zero count , Bigot then had to face a barrage of abuse after his opponents finished up in a 3NT contract making plus 2. They were both aware that all around the room a small slam in clubs had been bid and made in their direction. )
Opponent : You psyched......
B-J : No I didn't.....it was a prepared club
Opponent 2 : But your partner didn't alert....
B-J : He obviously forgot it was on the card.....
Opponent 1 : Apart from only having 2 card club suit your hand had no bloody points
B-J : The favourable vulnerability favoured a frisky bid
Opponent 2 : This is an outrage......we've been damaged by your bid
B-J : Might I point out that making 660 is a far better score than those pairs in 5C plus one
Opponent 1 : But you kept us out of 6C and a score of 1370 ..
B-J : You kept yourselves out of a slam....NOT ME !
Opponent 2 : How come ?
B-J : Listen muppethead.....what would you bid if your RHO opponent opened 1C , when you're sitting there , red against green , holding AKQ....AKQJ10...A....AKQJ in your hand ?
Opponent 2 : 7NT of course ....B-J : Exactly....and therefore you are your partner with a combined 33 count and 6-5 club fit should have the bidding nous to reach the obvious match point contract
Opponent 1 : That's your opinion ...but I'm still going to call the TD over
B-J : I wouln't if I was you......it's Ronnie
Opponent 2 : Yes partner.... he's right....best not to......
B-J : So onto the next board then...
( Bigot first to bid looks down at his 4144 three count .... and immediately reaches reaches for the1H card ))
