When playing inverted minors what is best, off or on over overcalls, off or on over double. Thank you
-
I play mini roman with several partners. We play it as 10-12 pts promising 4♠. after opening 2♦ if partner bids 2♥ we say "pass or correct". Recently I have come across players who say nothing and when you ask for an explanation of their 2♥ bid they just say he has Hearts, not saying if it is forcing or not, even if you ask. IS THIS CORRECT? Also is there any rules on number of pts needed. Can it be less than 10 pts? Or as some say "weak" when asked about points? Thank you

[hv=pc=n&s=st7hq7djt7653cq76]133|100[/hv] South opened 2♦ alerted as mini roman, 4-4-4-1 or 4-4-5-0 with opening count. North bid 1♠ accepted by East who now bid 2♥. North bid 2♠ out of turn which East again accepted. Director was called on each infraction. South passed West now thought she could not bid, that 2♠ had finished the bidding Only alert was by north mini-roman __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________Shouldn't ♠ bid been alerted since they play new suit forcing over weak 2 bids??????????? South if he opened a weak 2 should have alerted the 2 SPADE bid, otherwise he was bidding [PASS} on UNAUTHERIZED info __________________________________________________________________________________ CC says they are playing mini EW would make 4♥ NS made 2♠ Director was called when dummy came down and she said she would look at the scores afterwords. EW had to fight to get director to give AVERAGE to both. Was this correct? Comments welcome

dickiegera replied to dickiegera's topic in Intermediate and Advanced Bridge Discussion
Our bidding went 2♦-X-P-3♣ P-3♦-P-4♣ all Pass Making 6, they gave us a ruff and sluff. Hearts were 2-3 -
All of partner friends play this and she insist we do. Everytime we play she goes over the system and says she will not forget.

Partner and I play lear over opponents 1NT overcall. Partner frequently forgets. Example : I open 1Diamond and righthand opponent bids 1NT. Partner bids 2 Hearts which is alerted as a transfer. I bid 2 spades. Partner now bids 3 Hearts. What I am to do? Last time after passing and it passed out I said she always forgets. What am I suppose to do? [hv=d=e&v=0&b=14&a=1d1n2hp2sp3h]133|100| We play lear where 2Hearts is a transfer to Spades[/hv] To show both Majors we would bid 2 Clubs as a relay to Diamonds and then bid 2 Hearts showing the majors. Thank you

[hv=pc=n&w=sjt86ha9dk3cakq86&e=sak97432h52dat97c&d=w&v=0&b=8&a=1cp1s2h3s4h5hp]266|200[/hv] I believe that 5♥ shows 2 losers in Hearts and is asking West to bid 6♠ with 2nd round control of Hearts. Correct me if I am wrong. With first round control what is the correct bid by West? And how do you get to 7♠ or is it a reach? Thank you

[hv=pc=n&w=st93hakj62dat765c&d=n&v=0&b=1&a=1spp2s]133|200[/hv] Is a cuebid in pass out seat Michaels? If so what should the requirements be? Obviously should not be weak, could pass the hand out. What should point range be? Does this hand meet the requirements for a 2♠ bid? Thank you

[hv=pc=n&e=s87hqjt8da4ckq985&d=e&v=0&b=14&a=1cp1s1npp2d]133|200|1NT was explained as Natural[/hv] West hand.[hv=pc=n&w=sq962hk4dkjt876c4]133|100[/hv] Normally after East reply of 1NT west would bid 3♦ to play showing a 4-2-6-1 hand with less than invitational values Thank you

[hv=d=n&v=0&b=1&a=1ddp2d]133|100[/hv] Partner and I are trying to define this cue bid. #1 either both majors and highly invitational 10-11 good points. Question: can it be done with less points , perhaps 8? What are the follow ups? or #2 Game forcing with 1 or both majors or NT possible. Follow ups? Thank you

South won in his hand , played 3 rounds of diamonds with west playing club 10 on 3rd diamond. Now South plays jack of hearts lossing to Queen in East hand. I know that N/S are cold for 3NT , however my question is on what club to return and I give the hands and bidding if it might make a diference. WHICH CLUB DOES EAST RETURN? King or 5 and why? Thank you
