So the issue is whether we need to find 6♠. I am with Phil on this one (that's twice in the same thread!). I learned a long time ago that in a typical mp field one should avoid questionable sacrifices. Even when the save is 'good', we're likely to be doing no worse than average minus for not taking it, and of course when it is a phantom, we are getting close to a zero.

I can avoid the hat-trick by confessing I would wheel out the dreaded "walk the dog" tactic with the twelve trick hand:

Two Clubs!

I call b.s. on this!!!! I don't believe that you play 2♣ as natural.

You're just trying to avoid it appearing that we are actually the same player, with two different accounts.

2♣ over a normal 1♠ opening ...
