LOL indeed.  A 1NT o/c with a void is merely creative if Terry's bidding it
(actually, I agree there's nothing wrong with doing so, but this isn't the
hand for it) but a spade bid on a spade suit can be a psych...

Remember the same person told me my 3S was a psych, my 2c ridiculous
and he dares bid 1NT with his hand I think he is breaking his own
rules as 1NT must be a psych. The pattaya Bridge Club sent me a letter
not to come back again as he maintained his decision 3S is a psych and
considered he was harassed when asked for an apology ! When him and
only him decided to have a verdict from the Forum , ludicrous human
nature !

Vincit is a LIAR. You can refer to a previous post that pattayabridge
openly retracted the accusation of a psyche, so the section 'he
maintained his decision 3S is a psych' in the above entry is clearly
untrue. I also have an e-mail from him to confirm that he read the
post. As to the 2c opening (refer to the two psyches in one hand
entry) Vincit is again a LIAR. His partner was playing Standard
American (I have confirmation of this, and I also have an e-mail from
Vincit, which he DEMANDED I not reproduce on the internet, where he
says that a standard 2c is the correct opening bid). And by "demand",
I mean that he even threatened to take me to court if his e-mail was
not deleted from the internet! The auction also confims that 2c was
standard and most certainly not Benji-style, his partner (who has
never ever played anything but basic Standard American) obviously
thought that he had a standard 2c opener. Also, if you actually bother
to read the mentioned news-*** about the 1NT overcall,
pattayabridge (i.e. Terry) did indeed bid 1NT but stated very clearly
in the news-*** that dbl was a better bid. Vincit has problems. I
asked him not to e-mail me any more. He has sent me over 40 spam e-
mails when I explicitely said I did not want to hear from him any
more. They are mostly unread and I have stored then in a J-F_garbage
file. Before Vincit had his apparent problems he included the
following in an e-mail to me:
"Your Web site is great, your news is very interesting (still I
disagree on many things) as it makes me think of many situations I can
analyse. Your interference of 1NT with the stopper and the shortness
is perfectly correct and it is absurd to state you have psyched"
So, on July 23rd , Vincit said in an e-mail to me that that 1NT was
"perfectly correct". Funny how it has suddenly changed into something
worth sending to the forum, especially when I clearly stated in the
news *** that 1NT was the bid I made at the table but that dbl was a
better bid - please read the news ***  -www.pattayabridge.com/news_***/2008/News296.htm
- to be sure that it is not me who is a liar.
I do not claim to be a great bridge player, but I am well above
average and do put a lot of effort into promoting the game. Please
have a look at the web-site,www.pattayabridge.com. Even Vincit says
that the "website is great". Have a look at the guestmap to see what
visitors think of our club having played there, and what people think
of the website.
I have posted nothing on this forum for days, Vincit goes on and on
and on ....
I have written 298 news sheets to date, I expect at least one or two
articles in each to be questionable - so expect about 600 more post
from the unstoppable Vincit.
I am totally sick of Vincit; enough is enough, but not for him.
Is this forum really the place for people like Vincit to be
vindictive? I run a very sucessful, friendly bridge club. I have a
"great website" (Vincit quote) with weekly news-sheets and conventions
section for anybody to read or download free of charge. I do a lot for
the game. Not everybody will agree with everything I say and I am
probably quite frequently wrong. Unlike Vincit, I am happy to admit
when I am wrong. Vincit is never wrong? Funny how NOBODY liked his 2c
opening.
Enough, Vincit, I strongly suggest that you drop your vendetta against
pattayabridge. I know that your aim is to make pattayabridge look
foolish, but
keep at it and everybody will realise who is the fool. Look in the
mirror.
It is well known that the game is not getting enough players, do you
think that my efforts, or the antics of Vincit, are likely to get new
recruits?
It would be nice to know how many other members think that Vincit
should stop.
Incidentally, the club did ban Vincit. Good riddance, we can do
without his type.
Smiling tiger? Maybe smiling ass.

2C strong does not mean GF, When I decided to open 2C it was a Strong
European style quite automatic for me (And most european players would
open 2C). Anyway I am in third seat at favorable vulnerability and can
do what I want, you say my partner was playing Standard American so we
were not playing the same system !, He did not tell me so as I sat and
play forthwith, anyway only 3S was the issue here and your unfair
ruling that is why you should have apologized

You should not publish a private email on your site (for privacy
reason) but you can copy the text and publish and you have my
blessings

YES YOUR SITE IS GREAT and I must say you are putting a lot efforts in
it, but still a lot of your analysis are FLAWED,Many would think
you're a world champion to be so authoritative and affirmative in your
comments, but this game is much more difficult than what you think.

I was not aware I was ban, as you did not send me any official mail,
BTW I have just received something from your friend Mr Lewis BERG, he
is just telling me exactly the contrary of what you've just written, I
do not want to offence you or being rude just read his mail and my
answer, Finally there is no vendetta, your "flawed analysis" are a
Gold mine and we can all learn something, just be more cautious when
you make a statement about bridge.

Sometimes you have difficulties to understand my sense of humor as I
am French and you're English, it is rather funny !

Your first FLAWED ANALYSIS

AK

1) You did not open 1NT because you said the hand is not worth a 1NT
opening THIS IS WRONG it is worth 15 plus
2) One would consider not to open 1NT because it is suit-oriented +
you do not wish to receive the lead playing at NT = WRONG ORIENTATION,
your partner must play the hand not you, BUT if you open 1D you may
face other issues and you do not give a good lead still you have
defensive tricks and you can "invite" the oponents in the bidding

SO THE REASON YOU GAVE ARE WRONG .... AK bare is worth more than 7
points or quote your reference , where did you read that AK bare had
to be devaluated at NT? All simulations just prove the contrary

There are reasons one should open 1D, very good reasons but not the
one you gave, still I would open 1NT (but I do like it)

Your second flawed analysis

You said 1Nt is correct (even if you prefer X), I will not comment
further as it is not serious, may if you are drunk you can bid 1NT and
still I am not sure

Also you have no right to say I am a liar, YOU ONLY have decided to
ask for a verdict so why dont you publish it in your newssheets ?
Anyway Ilook forward to receiving your "ban" mail, do not forget to
give me your motives

I do not wish to affect your business, I think you are sincere and
honnest but you are stubborn, not open minded and you have
misconception and an obvious lack of understanding of basic bridge
theory, there was not ground to ban me (send your letter anyway), if
you have been hurt in your Ego, I sincerely apologise and you will
never heard of me again, still your attitude is a lesson as I was so
sure you were going to apologize as I would have done if the verdict
had been different, Again you can bee wrong the understanding of the
3S bid is obviously beyond the scope of what you can understand, 3S
WAS YOUR LIMIT
Vincit omnia veritas

PS ;: your site being public, anyone can comment your most interesting
boards, it is not a vendetta, we are just learning ...
