 The BBO commentators werent in the same wave length, what was the best voice?

 

 One of them was explaining how important was to show the heart suit right away, another had a philosophical attitude: "An interesting position"...another one doubted about Fantoni jumping to Bardin's jugular....

 

 But when Fantoni got the green card over the table...and passed...all of them support the voice...One said perhaps the diamond singleton was a misfit signal...Another commented: Fantunes 1 opening bid has a lot of information...more than normal player have for example is always not balanced. Fantoni knows that he has an opening hand in front an opening bid, and he also knows that the bidding does not end....A third one added: Berti cant run, another answered: you never have to rescue your partner...And Waldk2 just like a RIP...added: the correct vulnerability....

 Nunes won the lead with his J, and played his 6. Declarer played the K,  Fantoni the A, and continued with the J and the 4. Nunes won with his K and played trump: S7, declarer his SK and Fantoni a little spade...

 

 Bardin continued with a diamond, helping Fantoni to discard a club, Nunes won the trick with his Q and continued with  A, declarer ruff with the S4 y Fantoni over-ruffed with his S5.  Played the SA, no trumps in dummy, and played the Q...declarer only could make two trump tricks... rest for Fantoni...down 4...+1100 for Fantunes & 14 IMPs for their team.

 

All Match Hands...
