Flame Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 1♠ 2♣ p p X P 2♦ P2♥/2♠ You opened 1♠ LHO overcalled 2♣ partner and RHO passed, and you reopen with a double, partner bid 2♦(or 2♥) and you correct it into your suit/s.Did you show extra ?

cherdano Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Definite YES if you correct to 2♠ and a clear yes if you correct to 2♥. A minimal 5422 hand would bid 2♥ directly, a minimal 5413 hand would pass, a minimal 6421 hand has to bid 2♥ or 2♠ directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so. But you definitely showed club shortage. This isn't clear-cut, though. Probably something to discuss with pard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoTired Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Of course it shows extras and cherdano described the logic of why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Posted June 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 I asked some world class players and they say it doesnt show extra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 i don't think it shows extras, i think opener is 5422 and reopened in case his partner wanted to leave it in, and now he's offering a choice of contracts... i think he'd cue with extras instead of doubling or even after doubling (tho that might be misunderstood as diamond support) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
