In the semi finals of the Spingold, which is world class standard, both South players got this wrong.
Let the opponents play when they are misfitting, don't compete!
Both south's thought: I am not vulnerable, I have both of the other suits, this should be fine.
However, it is a very big mistake to bid - the bidding suggests that the opponents are in a misfit. In 2♠ the opponents are in a 7 card fit. The decision to compete put NS into a 7 card fit of their own, on the 3 level. This was doubled for -500.
when the opponents are in a fit, it is good time to compete. When the opponents are not in a fit, it is best to just defend.
