8-16 PH OR 10-17 PHD intervention

Im a real user of overbiding intervention. A lot of people dont understand. To bid after 1 D opening it takes generally between 8-16 PH OR 10-17 PHD. Obviously, to protect your sort you must bid. The purpose of that is to avoid ***** 3 nt bid. But in this situation South has no ENTRY in his hand so not necessary to bid. I find thats a perfect sacrifice hand. All depend of your p reaction. 4 S? Its not a sacrifice bid first. I think North has approximatly 12-14 pts but good distribution. One thing is sure opps will make their contract. So South must bid. Down 2 maximum 500 pts VS 600 + Why not 5 S? I dont like 5 H because dummy would be North. If North bid spade, he has minimum 7 spade.

I think you must bid. The only bid you can do is 3nt. I dont understand why someone said 4 club? Your partner have a opening hand and ask you to bid...what do you do when your boss ask you a question? Normally, you answer? Thats the same thing. If your p dont like your 3 nt because he has no stopper and his hand is very minimum, he will adjust. Dont be chicken...if 3 D is a really weak open he has not more than 1 entry in his hand...

Ok...sure?

Hi everyone! First of all, my english is not good so be patient. Recently, someone have been me talked about BBO skill. I didnt know that. I play Bridge since october 2013 only but I consider with insurance that I am better than a lot of players who definite your skill to advanced and more. I made good scores last month (I think) exept last week who have been very hard. But I dont know whats is going on. My score went down dramaticly. Im not able to correct the situation. Is it a bad break? Was it my fault or my p were too weak? I dont believe I play so bad. In fact, im serious...in bridge club of my area I success very good. Only 15 months experience but very good understanding of bridge. My question is...is it simply hasard? I cant believe it. Major time I made good calls. According BBO skill, my skill is intermediate ++ just near advanced (1600+) but Ive got better results comparativly to some advanced players I knew. Who know BBO skill? Is it a good reference? My score is -0.01???? Thats impossible last month .55!
