Dumb...dumb...dumb...

There we were playing the last board at bridge tonight and for a change partner and I were doing OK.

Partner opened a strong 2NT and I'm sitting with points and four spades. I bid stayman and partner shows spades. I ask for key cards and partner shows four. I hold the fifth. I ask for Kings and partner shows three. I have the fourth.

So what do I do? I bid 7NT! Dumb....dumb....dumb.

7 Spades is a lay down contract and 7NT goes one off. We drop four places and out of the match points.

Dumb...dumb...dumb.
