{Culbertson: The values of the negative notrump even on holdings shaded down
to merely a trick, coupled with the ability of either partner to keep the
bidding open to the point of game by a forcing rebid or a forcing takeout, was
beautifully illustrated on this hand. Culbertson, with 4 honourtricks plus, had a
hand which could go nowhere in particular if his partner did not have
sufficient strength-about 1 honour-trick-to make a free bid. Although he had a
powerful hand it did not justify a bid of more than one; yet with the protective
negative notrump response, to keep the bidding open, we were able to arrive at the
game bid in hearts which the combined holdings justified, easily making five.\n

{Culbertson: Another weakness of the "Official" System in its test against
Approach-Forcing methods developed on this hand. Deeply ingrained in the bidding
structure of the system which Lenz used against us, is the idea that three
small trumps are adequate support. This, coupled with the fact that the
"Official" System often blinds its users to distributional inferences, apparently made
it difficult for Lenz to appreciate the fact that  Jacoby's heart holding was
of four-card length. When a situation of this sort is flashed to the partner
by the Approach-Forcing convention of bidding the lower valued suit first, the
users of the latter system are so keenly alive to distributional weaknesses as
well as distributional strength that three trumps headed by a king, or even
an ace, are not considered desirable support for a suit bid if the hand does
not contain ruffing values. It is "adequate support," but when partners realize
that they will play with only seven trumps if one of two suits is chosen, the
resultant contract is invariably notrump.\n

{Jacoby: Undaunted by my useless psychic on the preceding hand, I tried a
psychic once more, with very good results. The success perhaps can be attributed
to the fact that our opponents did not expect me to bid psychics on successive
hands. My two spade bid over Lightner's one heart bid was of course entirely
unjustified by my holding and was pure bluff. I do not see how, without my bid,
the opponents could have stopped short of a slam bid.\n

{Jacoby: Lenz was justified in bidding five spades on this hand. We could have
set the five heart bid of the opponents 1 trick. As far as Lenz could judge
from his hand, there was too good a chance of making game on the hand, and he
did not want to give it up in exchange for a small set.\n

{Gruenther: Jacoby's psychic bids on this hand were somewhat amusing
especially his bid of four notrump. It might seem that Lightner should have passed the
double of four notrump. However, he knew perfectly well that Jacoby had an
escape, and that he was only too anxious to be allowed to bid five diamonds as a
rescue. Accordingly, Lightner voluntarily bid five clubs, hoping that this
would shut off Jacoby. The latter bid five diamonds but did not avail himself of
the fine chance for a sacrifice six diamond bid, which would have been
defeated by only 2 tricks\n

{Gruenther: After his partner's two diamond overcall, Jacoby was quite certain
that his side had a game. Over Lightner's bid of three clubs, he did not care
to rebid his spades, because that suit was scarcely strong enough. Moreover,
he could not afford to bid five diamonds, for that would shut out a four spade
bid by  Lenz. He therefore resorted to four clubs, which ordinarily would
imply that there were no club losers in the hand. In this instance, however,
Jacoby simply wanted to be sure of another bid from his partner. If Lenz had bid
three spades, then Jacoby would have raised the contract to four spades. When
Lenz rebid his diamonds, Jacoby was quite happy to contract for game in that
suit.\n
