Guest Jlall Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Right, the last time I opened 1S and rebid 4S I had AKQT9xx Axxx --- xx. I expect hands like this to be typical of the 1M followed by 4M approach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalvan14 Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 1M-1N-4M shows a hand which in 3rd position would have opened 4M. With a strong hand (say, equivalent to an Acol 2) it makes more sense to go more slowly (and re-bid a minor or a fragment at 3-level, creating a GF and leaving open the option of playing 3N).With the posted hand, a rebid of 3♦ stands out, either in SAYC or in 2/1. I would not judge too harshly N for bidding 1N: the hand is exactly in between a constructive raise and a limit raise. 1N (to be followed by 3♥ over the expected 2m) is standard practice in 2/1 (now if you tell me they were playing SAYC, things change :( ). I'm more and more convinced that S has to shoulder all the blame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
