南家以1S開叫,北家以4C回應,斯普林特約定叫(Splinter bid)是橋牌中的一種約定叫,也被稱為「爆裂叫」。指通過不尋常的跳叫新花色來表示對同伴的花色有很好的支持(一般是4張以上,對低花的支持則需要5張),且在己方所叫花色上有單張或缺門,該叫品是逼叫進局的。
斯普林特要求的點力範圍與所採用的叫牌體系有關,通常要支持隊友的高花開叫時需要10點以上,如果是叫出來的花色是缺門可以稍低一點,而要支持低花時需要稍高一點。
一般來說,有足夠成功率的高花合約成局力量大概是八張王牌配上25個牌點。可以注意到,如果使用這個特約的人跟他的隊友都是底限點力,那雙方可能會比25這個數字稍低1~3點,但如果夢家(答叫人)能夠提供兩次或甚至是三次的王吃,那這個合約還是有不錯的達成率。有些牌手之間會約定這個叫品不直接用於有興趣打滿貫合約的牌(當然,如果開叫人持有高限力量的話他可以再邀請),因為使用者的短門是否有對到隊友的牌型的結果影響太大,而且這個特約又一口氣用掉了太多叫牌空間,讓雙方難以確認。如果有興趣於滿貫,應該先以其他叫品確認進局,再以控制力扣叫或其他方式表示出短門。
完成清理王牌工作之後,夢家攻紅心10,東家以紅心J咬住,莊家以紅心A定住,如果莊家以紅心Q偷牌,莊家紅心A含可以再下一城,也許西家連攻2次方塊,讓莊家誤以為家持有紅心K,為了保護紅心K的勝墩機會。

Paul Anka - My Way (The John Davidson Show, Aug 17, 1969)
So now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain
My friend Ill say it clear
Ill state my case of which Im certain
Ive lived a life thats full
I traveled each and every highway
And more much more than this
I did it my way.
Regrets, Ive had a few
But then again too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exception
I planned each chartered course
Each careful step alone the by way
And more much more than this
I did it my way.
Yes there were times Im sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I face it all and I stood tall
And did it my way.
Ive loved, Ive laughed and cried
Ive had my fill my share of loosing
And the now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that and my I say
Not in a shy way
Oh no, oh no not me
I did it my way.
For what is a man what has he got
If not himself then he has not
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.
