Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to make
the world's greatest bid? Erik Paulsen, a former World
Champion, playing in the Blue Ribbon Pairs had that
feeling and this is the hand that inspired it.

Paulsen's leap to 5NT was the Grand Slam Force asking
South to describe his spade holding. In their methods
the response of 6 showed the ace or king but denied
the queen. With two of the top three honors responder
is supposed to leap to a grand. In addition, a six-club
response denies the ace or king.

Can you guess Erik's call over 6 double?
