Robert Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 Hi everyone I pass. Some will bid here and get a good result. That should not happen too often. Meckwell plays 1M-4M might be normal 5+ trumps 'or' a weak NT type of hand. They recently 'plucked' a +800 penalty out of thin air when one pair bid anyway. I think that this method was listed with the FD methods for 'simple' Precision. Shortly after reading it about this method, I switched to this dual meaning tactic. My current method is a Big Club system. If the 'dual meaning' method gains more widespread use, bidding with the example hand should be greatly reduced.

Fluffy Posted December 18, 2005 Report Share Posted December 18, 2005 This is really tough, I think I'll pass and hope for only +50, if I had to act it would be 4NT, but -300 when I had easy +50 is a very bad result. at MP it would be closer, yet I think I would pass.

P_Marlowe Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Hi, having a fair chance to beat the contract,3 defencive tricks + a King, I will Pass. I will only go to the 5 level, if you pay theloss. Marlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 The only actions to consider here are pass and double. Double isnt penalty here but partner wouldnt take it out unless he has a shapy hand, which is exactly what we want.The risk is ofcourse that partner is weak.

Al_U_Card Posted December 19, 2005 Report Share Posted December 19, 2005 Da da da da......that's the power of ....SPADES.....pass and try to take 4 tricks (which is what you might lose in a 5H contract....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 the 4♠ bid is preemptive, but that doesn't mean it's necessarily weak (hope those 2 things aren't mutually exclusive)... i can't bid here, pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Pass, an easy one imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 Pass It is far from clear that you have been fixed. Even if you have been, once fixed, stay fixed. Doubling is for adrenaline-junkies. 5♥ is for the terminally suicidal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_U_Card Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 5♥ is for the terminally suicidal. So much for reincarnation.....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
