The TD was called by
East at the end of play. The 1© bid showed 11-15 HCP with at least five spades, saying
nothing about hearts. After the bid of 2§, North alerted East, although South did not alert West.
When North was asked, he described the 2§ as 'Stayman, maybe Stayman'. There was no description
of the meaning of West's pass of 1©
on the convention card, nor was it alerted. 1© - 1ª would be a puppet to 1NT, and 2¨ after that would be signoff, so the
actual sequence suggested some other place to play apart from 2¨. |
