[blml] The term "cue"

[Anne Jones]

Sounds like it was a 'splinter' not a Cue which I read as first round
control, not a singleton. Whether there was misinformation depends on their
agreements, Either it was MI or 4H was a misbid in their system. It also
depends on how the word 'cue' is used in the area of the problem. AKX would
be described as 'double stop' where I am(UK), and the man looking at A would
know it is working.
However if  AH would drop singleton K, I wonder that 3NT is making on that
auction.
