Echognome Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 [hv=d=n&v=b&n=s842hakqt95djcak5&s=saq753h6dakqt6cj2]133|200|Scoring: IMP[/hv] I'll let you bid it with your favourite partner. I opened a strong club and relayed to 6♥ after a bit of a misbid by partner. Anyway, I thought it interesting that... In your 8 card spade fit, game is the limit. In your 7 card heart fit, the small slam is best. In your 6 card diamond fit, grand is quite good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Not the greatest of auctions here:1h=1s3h=4d4h=6nt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 With relays I can't find out if partner has ♦T as well, so grand in ♦ is a blind guess (unless you think 4 tophonours in a 5-1 fit are enough). North will know about AQxxx-x-AKQxx-xx, so 6♥ has the best chance of making. It doesn't help if South is relayer: he can't find out if partner has ♦J...

Finch Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Our team-mates bid to 7H after an Acol 2H opening from North. They suggested an auction after the fact to bid to 7D but it wasn't very convincing. Our opponents played in 6H after a gentle start to the auction of 1H-1S-3H.

paulg Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 Our teammates bid to 7NT after starting 1♥-1♠-4♥. I didn't ask any further, especially as our opps subsided in 4♠. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blofeld Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 We bid to 6NT, on the slightly crude auction 2♣[1] : 3♣[2]3♥ : 3♠3N : 5N6♥ : 6N [1] Trebuchet, showing a weak 2 in diamonds, an Acol 2 in a major, or any 23+ point or game forcing hand[2] Diamond positive (asking partner to bid 5♦ with the weak hand and game-forcing opposite any strong hand) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 7NT was actually a good contract with the J of hearts falling doubleton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
