| Two big swings | by Barry Rigal |
| Right at the end of the Round 4 match against Brazil, the Norwegians picked up two big swings. What would you bid with the West hand on Board 17 after 2¨ (both majors 0-10), Pass, Pass?
Pedro Ceglia of Brazil tried 2NT and went for 800 in 3NT doubled on the minority of high card points (19). Then came a slam which needed Q 10 9 8 5 2 facing A 6 3 to play for no losers. It did not produce the required miracle. The 13 IMPs left Norway 24-6 winners.
