awm Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 I like 2NT on this hand. Sort of a "gambling 2NT." The quacky holdings outside the suit make 3♥ somewhat less appealing, but I think 2♥ is something of an underbid. Rebidding 1♥ wouldn't occur to me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoTired Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 Looks like a standard 3H rebid, but because of all the outside quacks, downgrading to 2H would be reasonable. 2N sounds cute and funny.... Then responder bids 6N with a flat 15, the opps double and run the first 5 diam tricks... Partner does not share my sense of humor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbleighton Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 3H. 2H is understandable but also chicken :) Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebidding 1♥ wouldn't occur to me. :) I don't like 2NT on this hand because it seems to overstate the strength.(This doesn't look lik 18-29 balanced to me) If I were going to treat the hand as balanced, I think that I'd open 1N at the get go. As for my rebid... Mark me down for 2♥ The Qx in Spades looks to be pulling a bit more weight, but the minor suit holding don't excite me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pclayton Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 3♥ looks 'down the middle'. 2N is a little weird for me. If I'm making a weird bid, its 2♣. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcLight Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 This is MP not IMPs so I don't see the need to take risks and press on to game. The problem I see with 3♥ is pard will accept game with 2-3 hearts and AKJxx♠ and you may go down. I think your minor suit holding is potentially wasted.What does pard need to accept raising 3♥ to 4? You have 6 losers, and need pard to cover 3 of them. How likely is pard to have that? The opps haven't bid (pard may have 5 spades) so they rate to be balanced or don't have much.

P_Marlowe Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 3H. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 If I'm making a weird bid, its 2♣.(To be honest here..) This is the sort of hand where I find myself with an impossible rebid. I would likely end up bidding 2♣ to force another bid from my partner, hoping to hear nt or ♠.
