Finch Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 England has one national KO competition with Aggregate scoring. While all those matches were on Vugraph yesterday afternoon, we were playing a round of it. Here's a few interesting hands from it. It's been a long weekend, so I'm feeling generous: no play problems (there were a couple of corkers as well, so I'll save them up). 1.[hv=d=w&v=n&s=s104hj93d1095cakq52]133|100|1♥ p 1♠ p2♠ p 2NT p3NT all pass[/hv] They play 4 card majors, weak NT, very little system. Your lead. 2.[hv=d=w&v=n&s=s104hj93d1095cakq52]133|100|1♥ p 1♠ p2♠ p 2NT p3NT all pass[/hv] 2♦ is 4th suit game forcing2♥ is constructive, about 9-12 with a 6-card suit 3.[hv=d=w&v=n&s=s104hj93d1095cakq52]133|100|1♥ p 1♠ p2♠ p 2NT p3NT all pass[/hv] 4.[hv=d=w&v=n&s=s104hj93d1095cakq52]133|100|1♥ p 1♠ p2♠ p 2NT p3NT all pass[/hv]You play strong NT, 5CM, 1♦ promises 4+, open 1♦ with 4-4 minors2♣ is forcing to 2NT or 3m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a long weekend with go, and your play problems are consistently tough (and unfortunately interesting too.) 1.[hv=d=w&v=n&s=s104hj93d1095cakq52]133|100|1♥ p 1♠ p2♠ p 2NT p3NT all pass[/hv] They play 4 card majors, weak NT, very little system.

You said you open sound, but with the possible misfit and the bad suit I can't see this as a game force.3.[hv=d=w&v=n&s=s104hj93d1095cakq52]133|100|1♥ p 1♠ p2♠ p 2NT p3NT all pass[/hv]You play strong NT, 5CM, 1♦ promises 4+, open 1♦ with 4-4 minors2♣ is forcing to 2NT or 3mIf double is takeout, that might be the best solution, but I assume (and prefer) that it is hearts. I would just raise to 2♦, I am not optimistic about game. Arend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 1. ♣A, wtp?2. Since I have a bid that shows exactly this hand, I really don't see wtp. 2♥.3. Pass. LHO is probably very close to a strong 2. Bidding might drive opps to a making game.4. 1NT. Stopper? What's that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
