jdonn Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 4S. I have seen this played as a really good 4S bid, so I'll hope from my hand thats how CHO means it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalvan14 Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Without any agreement? In a new partnership? I'd bid 4N (for the minors) and start thinking who might be a better partner B) There should be plenty to choose from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Is there any chance it might be natural? I might be tempted to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 4NT for the minors. If my new pard is brave enough to try for an undiscussed bid, he'll probably have more than 1 suit. Makes sense, no? At least I think so B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker_gib Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Is there any chance it might be natural? I might be tempted to pass. I don't think it can be natural when you have 3♥ and opener has 5♥. So, a very good 4♠ bid, a giant 3-suiter ... ? Making undiscussed bids like this can't be productive. One thing is sure, if I collect a zero, that won't be my fault ! Let's go with 4NT to continue in the same vein LOL Alain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Well, that's assuming that North hasn't psyched his 1H opening. Also possible is that North/South play 4 card majors, in which case partner has something like AKJxxx and a good hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchett Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 My guess looking at my hand is that partner has a good 4S overcall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 4♠. Partner might have a Namyatsy hand in ♠. Ask Zia what he thinks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endymion Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 4NT. Partner has a very distributional (but not strong) hand with spades and a minor and is willing to preempt them to 4♠ or 5m immediately. Same as immediate 1M - 4NT - Unusual NT, preempt to 5 level.

Codo Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 I don`t belive in ral hearts and a psych from north. In that case, pd should wait and bid later.I don`t believe in a giant one-suiter,in that case he could have bid slowly. I do belive in a strong two-suiter with spades. Seems easy. So 4 NT is my bid too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bid_em_up Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 I'm with the 4N bidders. The question becomes what to do over 5C/5D by pard. I also think this should be a strong(ish) two-suiter (or really freakish distributional 7-0-5-1, 7-6, 661, etc). Weaker, less distributional hands, could have simply michaeled. My inclination would be to pass 5C and raise 5D to 6. However, it also depends on who my partner is. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
