READY TO TAKE THE PLUNGE?

TEAMS.
DEALER SOUTH, ALL VUL.

Sitting South, you open your hand with 1NT:

♠ AK108
 K54
 AJ92
♣ 53

With no fit, you bid 3♣ after partner’s Club transfer of 2♠, not knowing yet if he wants to play a part score, game or slam. North then applies the “theory of the singleton” and shows a singleton Spade (3♠). You understand his message and, looking at a very solid Spade guard, you bid 3NT, the final contract.

West leads the Spade 6.
