Echognome Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I'm a passer. If I bid on this shape it will be double not 1♥ as I'm 3-suited outside of clubs. I just don't feel I'm strong enough to act here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I bid 1♥. Not perfect, but it will leave me with no remorses later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I bid 1♥ althou the other options don't seem unreasonable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker_gib Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 1♥ too. Not enough to dbl and I don't dbl with a 5 card major when the other is only by 3 cards. Sure I'm vul but I'm not yet doubled :) Alain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Hi, I voted for pass, if partner would have been a passed hand, i.e. if i am in 3rd or 4th seat, I would dbl. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbleighton Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 1H seems clear to me, but then I overcall at the one level on a lot less than this :P Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pclayton Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Pass, but I'll overcall at MP's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I'd pass. This hand has no redeeming features on offense. Compare it to Ax Axxxx xxxx Kx: now I overcall happily. Passing may miss a game once in a while, but it will also avoid a lot of small or moderate losses and the occasional disaster. It is surprising how often your pass, on this hand type, is followed by a 1♥ bid on your left (and a silent sigh of relief on your part) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al_U_Card Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 It is surprising how often your pass, on this hand type, is followed by a 1♥ bid on your left (and a silent sigh of relief on your part) Ditto. This hand is the kind that holds nasty surprises, better that they be for the opps than for our side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zasanya Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I passI am experimenting with the following idea regarding overcalls.At unfavourable vulnerability I need a 7 loser hand to overcall at 1 level,6 loser hand to overcall at 2 level and so on.At equal vul I overcall at 1 level with 8 loser hand, 2 level with 7 loser hand and so on.At favourable vul I overcall at 1 level with 9 loser hand ,at 2 level with 8 loser hand .Points do not matter but I need at least a Q in the suit.My P does not count on any defensive tricks with me.I employ roman jump overcalls on natural openings to show specific two suiters, 2nt jump overcall to show a 4 loser two suiter hand, 2 suiter simple overcalls on strong ♣ and capp.This has worked well in practice for me.I would welcome any comments adverse or otherwise.
