Only if we have shape.... I can strech a bit in this position of course but I tend to be conservative with flat hands.

I hate to lose and I lose more than I win ! I hate this game ! :o Alain

Well, if you ask yourself if it's an opening, you are min so you have to pass the invite ! :o

Same

3♠

Grand slam force asking for trump honours

I agree with everyone ! B) Alain

All honours probably works but this is 4333 so 3♠ Alain

I like it too and very few top pairs do not play it so I suppose it is a useful convention ! B) Alain

Not bad for a day of bridge ! :rolleyes: :D

I did not have the opportunity to see the first part. Are the results somewhere ?? Alain

Same ! WTP ? B)

Impossible to pass this for me : 2♠

Without any agreement, I take this as a t/o of diamonds that wasn't strong enough for direct action. Alain

Yes even with 12 cards ! :rolleyes:

Yes ! Is this a problem to reverse it Harald ? And, as Frederick says, play it 2M-1 as constructive or natural... 1M-2M is more premptive, particularly on 1♠-2♠ because opps can't double 2♥ to show the suit.... Alain

It is also the one where the chance factor is reduced to its minimum. And the social aspect of a partnership is very interesting. Great game ! Alain

It is often more dangerous to believe partner!!! LOL Do you believe yourself ? :P :)

I agree with Mike here. For me 4h comes from a powerhouse and I would not let the opponents play this undoubled. If it's a make, ok, next one... Alain

Pass Partner does not want my ♦ and I have QT in ♣....

No major control ;)

I pass too ! A bit flat to bid. Let's hope to have a plus.

Close between X and 5♣ but now 5♣

Pass

1NT normal, 3♥ normal ! :P
