Of course I only mean the first double. Sceptic, why do you post these auctions?

lol@ the thought of not Xing 1C. I thought the notion of passing with the north hand over 1C went out in the 60s. Oh yeah, t/o Xs show 4441 and 13+ points I forgot.

It would be nice to have one where 3 of the 4 players weren't lunatics on several of their turns ;)

I am not that keen on the double with the Nth hand. I dislike blanket statements like "many world class players would double". I could just as easily counter this by saying more world class players would pass. There is no evidence apart from anecdotal either way.

Regrdless, Nth is the absolute nutter at this table, not so much for the initial double with which I can live, though I think it is a bad bid, but rather for his subsequent inanities.

Wayne, I really dislike your 1NT bid and the reason for bidding it is spurios. 1NT here should show more values. imo you have a clear cut 1D call.
