I feel incapable, deeply, to make such bidding. Could experts analysis what's the logic behind bidding 1 and why bidding 2 failed?

Finch Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 You don't say what the 2C overcall at table 1 meant. I assume from the rest of the auction that 2C = hearts and another, anchor to longer major (common in England, although many would have just overcalled 2S), which makes a great deal of the rest of the auction more sensible. I'm not sure one table is much more successful than the other. 5D looks to be an OK-ish game, but I wouldn't be that upset at either bidding it or not bidding it.

benlessard Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 a borderline game. You cannot say bidding 1 is a success and bidding 2 a failure. You need clubs 3-2 or a stiff T♣ (south chance of having a stiff clubs are good)A non-spades lead (unlikely)King of diamond onside You need 2/3 to make game.
