Show preference with 7club! As you can see, this was a fortunate make. The two opposing North-South pairs reached the best contract (in theory) of 6NT, but the other North-South on Nick's side languished in game after a bidding misunderstanding. The grand therefore held the loss to two IMPs, but it would have been much worse had heartQ been with West!
