I have not watched the video yet. I'm very proud of my first attempt 8 trick. I solved it by Ace of Spade trick 1, then Low club to King, low club back. Now I have setup a club winner to discard my 6 of diamonds. The rest plays itself. Now I will enjoy the video, excited to see if that was the solution, or maybe I found another way to solve it :) !!
Have to add another comment, watched til 1:05 , you are talking about this is a bid some players would not made. I know the old players, they are good at playing cards. But their ability to change when new things gets discovered is terrible. and that's what makes them stay at their place and not evolve as a player. They will never get better with that attitude. Me and my partner uses Terrorist bids, under Multi 2 diamonds. 0-9p in green and 4-9 in Red. With responses to find out the point range (0-3,4-6 or 7-9 in green or 4-5, 6-7 or 8-9 in Red) So we can basically get pretty exact point range, but we don't have a way to show more of the Shape or honours. Our 2 Major opening is 10-13 6card suit. Insanely powerfull system. which always generates or stays even with the rest of field in my experience. It has been super succesfull at Club level. Sometimes you might even get to pass down a 1M - Rebid 2M with 14-16 6card heart when we have no fit and no other bids that makes sense, where the rest of the field all bid 1M- Rebid 3M pass around. -1 to us and -2 to the rest is powerful amount of points in Match points. My personal experience is that weak 2's is very weak compared to Multi 2Diamonds. But I know good players that does say that Weak 2's are the strongest system. I would love to know why, as nobody have explained to me yet, and I won't change a system that generates me success until I increase to a level where it does not anymore. and I learn why maybe multi 2D is not good.
One more great video for us to learn declarer play. Thanks so much Gavin.

I’d have hopped on clubs immediately
