ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- Today's 98.3 TRY Social Dilemma has to do with appearance. Here's the email: Get the latest, news, weather, sports and community events delivered right to your inbox! Hi Jaime my name is Austin and I have a dilemma that came up between me and my wife. My wife had to go away on a business trip for a week. While she was gone I decided I wanted to do something really different with my hair. I've been blonde my whole life, well, dirty blonde, but I decided I wanted to go full on black. I decided I would just surprise her with my new look when she got home. However, when she got home, well, she was surprised, but not in a good way. She couldn't believe I changed my look without talking with her about it first. She said we've been married for 14 years, and the least I could have done was consult her about the change. I told her I wasn't being unkind, it was just something I wanted for me, and that it didn't have anything to do with her. She's still giving me a b...

Jenni Carmichael and Greg Humphreys won the Mixed Pairs at the ACBL Spring NABC. In today’s deal, Humphreys as West found the best opening lead of the entire 10-day tournament.South’s jump to 2NT was bold. According to Carmichael, Humphreys judged from his partner’s silence in the auction that she lacked a good suit with which to overcall. (East-West’s style was quite aggressive in competition.) Humphreys suspected that dummy would have at least one four-card major suit; hence he judged to lead a diamond even though North had bid that suit.NORMALAssuming you choose a diamond lead, the normal card is the three. But Humphreys feared that leading low might pickle an honor in the East hand; hence he came forth with … the jack of diamonds!You can see what that lead did to declarer. He might have salvaged seven or even eight tricks, for instance by ducking a heart and setting up a possible end play. But declarer played differently and went down two, minus 200.Only the lead of the jack of ...
