"Hope you have some of those..."

Funny hand the other day... You hold, sitting South.

♠ ♥ A92 ♦ AJT732 ♣ Q732

The auction goes a little something like this:

West	North	East	South
		p	1♦
2♦	4♦	p	5♦
p	p	p

Here's the kicker... Just before dummy hits the table, partner fires this off: "Oops... Sorry, I wasn't paying attention. Hope you actually have some diamonds." Always a promising start to a hand.

Luckily, we both 'had our bid', in a manner of speaking.
