This hand was played in a re- cent duplicate match. Many players passed the hand out for they could not find the require- ments for an opening bid accord- ing to their system.

However, when the North hand was held by a player familiar) with the latest developments of the one over one system he opened with a bid of one club in third position. East had two high card tricks but no biddable suit and was therefore obliged to pass.
