Big finish -- nice job, John.

Board 4 would go a lot smoother had you made a simple overcall rather than unusual 2NT. If North bids notrump, the hand plays from the right side.

I think north should just bid 3diamonds - they don't have enough for 3NT. It's very double dummy to bid 2D...if partner has 3 clubs and 2 diamonds and then i were to bid 3C over whatever bid next - or my partner might pass with 4 clubs and 1 diamond and now we are in a 5-1 fit instead of a 5-4 fit.

In general, I go out of my way not to make a bid that describes my hand and allows my robot partner to decide the contract.
