It happened in the third round Swiss Qualification of the 2018 National Youth Bridge Championship.
Board 7
Vul: Both
Dealer: South
South
♠ A 3 2 South West North East
♡ A 6 1♣ pass 1♡ 2♢
♢ A Q 6 pass pass X pass
♣ T 9 7 6 2 3NT AP
I really don't understand why South bids 3NT, even if she is my teammate. North makes a balancing to keep bid on. Maybe North just wants to reach a part score deal depending on good distribution. So this take out double might be more slight than other position. How to make a 3NT contract if North only holds 8 points. South is self-contradictory. If South has capacity to bid 3NT, why do not bid 2NT in last turn? Although I do not agree to bid 3NT, it is undeniable that 3NT is a challenged and excited contract.
♠ QT74
♡ J873
♢ 7
♣ KQJ4
----------------
♠ A32
♡ A6
♢ AQ6
♣ T9762
In fact, South cashed all the tops after knocking out ♣A and claimed down one. South is not good at play. Apart from applying squeeze and throw-in into practice, it is a big challenge to her to analyze all the distribution outside, even if in an easy case. Where does her self-confidence come from to bring such a contract home?
Please bid in accord with your real play level!!! Please do not bid too high. Please put the fact in the bottom of your heart that your play level couldn't afford your radical bidding!!!
I have shared this deal with Rocky and he has given the clear analysis on his blogger. Here I will not go further on this issue.
