Back from Russia by Fulvio Fantoni

Hi all
Slava Cup ended with an only good news: on my way back I could find my luggage… (which was lost on my arrival).
Unfortunately this year we could not succeed in winning the tournament for the third time in a row.
Congratulations to Netherlands (Sjoert Brink, Berend Van De Bos, Sebastiaan Drijver, Jiris Van Lankveld, Herman Drenkelford), winner in Russia.

From yesterday evening we are in AbanoTerme, waiting for the guests of our vacation.

So, overthinking about bad boards, a good one came to my mind and I will tell you about it.

 

2 = positive 10+ with Clubs or balanced or Spades support
2 = 4+ cards in Hearts
2NT = relay
