Dransfeld (GER) opened his hand showing his spade suit at the one level, West entered the bidding with 2
and Gündel (GER) made a cue-bid, Dransfeld continued showing his hearts, Huvers (NTHY) repeated his diamonds and North closed the spade game, the bidding died after three passes.
Declarer made 11 easy tricks and added + 650.
At the other table N/S Netherlands Youth couple was more ambitious and decided to play a slam …and they were incredibly lucky too.
Dupont (NTHY) also opened his hand with a 1
but now West chose to show his hand jumping to 4…Caris (NTHY) with 5 cards in his partner´s opening suit jumped to 5 and Dupont with extras couldn´t stop before slam, at last moment he chose to play it in NT.
Lucky declarer received almost the only lead to win: 
8.
After a long thought declarer played small from dummy and was rewarded when East played the J…enabling his queen to win the trick.
After that…the road to victory was simple and declarer ended with 12 tricks and 13 IMPs.
The last board of the match was another big win for Netherlands …but we couldn´t watch it 
, the match ended:
Netherlands Youth 33 – Germany 6
