That seemed pretty definitive, Snaqs.

Not so for me. Sometimes I can see to help a partner on those threes [only twice, so far]

Once was like the original post, but instead of my good partner [Zebra44] marking a three [cuz he wasn't gonna guess the three like the OP indicated], he looked at me and I helped. I was [2-whistle] Lead and the players parted, like the Red Sea, to give me the view.

The other time, a lesser partner [Strong-side Trail] guessed and marked a three near our primary intersections, and I changed it to two on the fly.
