Sementa in East opened his hand with a 1 bid and when Duboin answered with a Forcing Game call,  Sementa quickly informed him about his autonomous heart suit…with no doubt their trump suit. Duboin begun with his cheaper control and when he listen his partner’s club control asked for keycards. After being informed about Sementa’s club void he declared the Grand Slam. Declarer ruffed the A lead and claim 13 tricks.

  In the other room East opened his hand with a 4  call…his last words…he ended playing game and scoring 510…but obviously with a very bad mood.
