IF ♠ are 2-2 i whould make it like this i think. Ace of ♥,ruff a♥ draw 2♠play♦to king, ruff last♥, ace of ♦ and ace of ♣ and last♦ now u should read the ending easy. kenneth

After 1♦-(X)- you overcall 4 card majors. but After (1♣)-1♦-p- you overcall 5 card... I am not really sure, but I believe the first one is a much more competitive tending sequence than second. Its probably a matter of style, When my partner fails to double it doesn´t mean he has shortness on the other major, but that he has too many ♣ normally, also 4 card♦ overcalls are very frequent for us. Agree i play it like this too.

whats the contract?

No i think ♣ jack in 2 trick would work, 5♣-2♠-1♦1♥=9

SORRY ABOUT THAT, DINT KNOW. KENNETH

hi, i did ask what 3 ♣ meant and he replied it was new stayman, forsing and asking for 4♦or 5♥, so not a psyke. kenneth, and the reason i gave ave=- was becouse i was the north player kenneth

Any ads its fine whit me, pop ups too, i have a good pop up stopper:) kenneth

Someone sayd that its no longer a risk to bid at the 1 level,no matter pts. suitlength or voulntrability. I really dont agree whit this , playing at the bridgehouse in oslo we play dobbeld 1 level contracts atleast 2 times in a 28 board turney. whit 500-1100 in downs.

Hope someone can answer this qestios i have been woundering about the same things:) kenneth

Playing againgst 14-18 nt i whould like X to be penalty too:))

Offcourse voulnarbility matter on the 1 level to. if u use to bid on garbage in non flavord voulnrability f.ex u pay a lot of 500-800 out im sure

:P

LOL u know how it is, i joind a team match for only real expert:))))

i would play small to 10, and small to Q next time in both

i whould bid 4♠ to show both minor

Hi all, i had this hand in a team match for experts today: [hv=d=s&v=b&s=saj10xxhaxdkxxcqxx]133|100|Scoring: IMP[/hv] and bidding whent, whit me as dealer: 1♠-pass-2♥-pass-2nt-pass-4nt-pass-? and its my turn to bid again, now 2nt-4nt was undiskussed so while my p meant it as rcbw whit spades i thougt it was kvant and bid 6 nt. now rho dbl and p hasitate for a minnute and pass,lho pass and its my turn again. now i trye to se what rho dbl on and can make a fair oppsomsion that he ether have both minor aces or ace king in clubs,if he have to aces it dont matter what i do,couse we are down anyway,but if he have ace king in !C we have a chance in 7 harts if p have good harst and lho dont find the lead. So i bid 7 ♥, left opps dbl again and all pass, west lead a ♠ and this is all hands: [hv=d=s&v=b&n=skqxhkqj10xxxdaqcx&w=sxxxhxdjxxxxcakjx&e=sxxhxxxdxxxcxxxxx&s=saj10xxhaxdkxxcqxx]399|300|Scoring: IMP[/hv] and the bidding was: 1♠-pass-2♥-pass-2nt-pass-4nt-pass-6nt-dbl-pass-pass-7♥-dbl-all pass Now my question is: was 7 ♥ an illeagal bid from me given my partners hassitasjon? i whould bid the same if my p pass in a split second so i think the bid is ok, opps wher mad since 7♥ made on a non !C lead and they wanted the board to be stryken from the match( teams no director) what do u think?? thx for all applies kenneth

Why cant ur email-adress be real? you can get the mailadress u want now thees days if u pay for it:)))

hi all;) I dont think the ruling was fair, u should not bid 4 ♠ but X 4 ♣ and call the director. now it loos like u are "safing" a great score by bidding 4 ♠ and when u see that was only midle score call director and complaine. sry but i thing 4 ♠ +1 was a fair result for u and opps got of whit a scare for forgetting the system kenneth

HI:) sry if this is the wrong place to ask but can someone tell me what deep finnes is and what is used for? kenneth

wow i hope pepole playing whit me dont open 3nt on this hand:)))

3 nt in both cases

trancfer and bid 3 !S:)

I think its really sad that some cheaters make us discouss if its best to dissalow kibitzing from tourneys on bbo,this is one of the best things bbo has to offer and we should never change this. its many things bbo could and are doing to prevent cheeters but this is not one of them i hope. kenneth

Well.. Misho, that goes much further than I advocate... I am simply asking that no ONE KIBITZ... play is ok, but in protest of not allowing kibitizers, I think we should all avoid kibitizing, until he sees the light. Ben Not allowing kibbitzers goes against the whole spirit and concept of bbo imho. The ability to be able to kibb good players in "real time" is one of the joys of this site. Its a pity that some wish to spoil this aspect. Ron agrre ron kenneth
