pclayton Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 IMPs, short match, NV [hv=d=n&v=n&s=skha9xxxdqcqtxxxx]133|100|Scoring: IMP[/hv] Pard opens 1♦, you bid 1♥, he tries 1♠. Some system footnotes. You play XYZ, where (over 1♠): a) 2♣ is a puppet to 2♦ to invite gameb ) 2♦ over 1♠ is an artificial game forcec) 2N over 1♠ is a transfer to 3♣ indicating less than an invited) A jump to 3♣ is a slam try and shows 2 good suits You also play a 12-14 NT. The rebid of 1♠ does not deny a balanced 15-17, but it does deny a balanced 18-19. Your call? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Horrible misfit. I'm going to try 1NT. If partner can't do something interesting in hearts I don't want to put this hand into game. To invite in clubs would be an error I believe without a fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Yes. It's a textbook 1NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbleighton Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Misfit, schmisfit, I don't care. I have 11 hcp, and the singleton honors are in pd's suits. I invite with 2C, then 3C. This could be wrong, but I've been wrong before :D Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike777 Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 2clubs. I hope we are playing the version of XYZ where partner must show 3hearts as a priority over the auto puppet to 2D. Assuming partner does bid 2D, denying 3hearts and denying a 6D and 5 spade hand I will now bid 3clubs. Assuming a Walsh style with all invite and less hands, partner may guess correctly and play us for exactly 4 Hearts and 6 clubs and an invite hand with alot of shape. I understand the choice of 1NT and may choose that at MP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
