Are you saying your partner called block and you didn't like it and shared this opinion with your inquisitive coach? It sounds like it. Not sure I agree with this approach. You could say something a little more neutral, like, "yeah, that was a close one there," indicating that you understand the reason for his concern but you aren't about to leave your partner hanging.

Now if this was your own call and you are now second guessing yourself, I guess whatever works for you is ok. but this comment to a coach seems a little out of place to this coach.
Oh no, it was my call and i kicked it bad. My partner actually didn't show up, so I was doing this solo... I sold the call, but i knew that i kicked it and told him as i was going to report that it wasn't the best call of the night.

I agree. I would never do that about a partners call only my own. Thanks for asking me to clarify.
