andych Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Let say you play in BBO ACBL with a pickup. Let say your pd open 1♦, bidding goes 1♦, (1♠), 2♣ by you would be forcing 1 round and pd would take that? More confusing,1♦, (1♠), X, (Pass), 2♦, (Pass), 2♥, Pd would understand you hold 5 times hearts, sth like 3514 with 8-10 points, and that 2♥ is non-forcing?Yes I understand I should probably pass. But just so happen I would like to bid again with 2♥, would pd take that? :P :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just so happen I would like to bid again with 2♥, would pd take that? Why not start with 2♥ over 1♠? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bid_em_up Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 To the best of my knowledge, negative free bids are not the norm in either SAYC or 2/1. New suit by responder is (almost) always forcing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Posted April 9, 2006 Report Share Posted April 9, 2006 When making a pickup partnership people waste a lot of time for if michael's show 5-5, 4-5, if (1♣)-2♣ is nat, what strenght, do we play lebensohl or rubensohl, I remember someone telling me 3 codified rounds of bidding after a very specific sequencewich of course would never happen. I ask about blackwood and 2 secuences: 1♠-(2♣)-2♥ and (1♣)-1NT-(ps)-2♥ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
