3rd seat question

[gnasher]

2♦. I like partner to be able to bid sensibly opposite a 3rd-hand opening at the one-level, so my openings aren't very different from in first seat. Two-bids are different.

 

Like Apollo81, I'd like to have ♦10, but you have to work with what you were given.

[the hog]

I agree. Pass.

 

Just realised, this thread is over a year old. What's up, Han?

[han]

Ah yes, you are right.

I mentioned in another thread that many in this Forum open the bidding anytime they hold 13 cards.

 

This is another case in point.

 

(I bet they would open a strong 2♣ if they held 14 cards).

There's better examples than this. We are 3rd chair green, so that gives a license.

 

It's funny, I was reading this, and I saw pleighton's comment and I thought this was really old LOL.

 

I still pass by the way, but my reason is that I think there is a reasonable chance this will get passed out, and bidding just makes it easy for them to bid their majors.

 

2♦ is a 2nd choice, not 1♦, but 2♦ randomizes the results.

I would open 2♦. I am just not going to sit there and let the opps have all the space they need when they hold the majors. Ok... so partner was 5-5-1-2 with a bad hand. Next.

1H. Any seat, any scoring.

[skjaeran]

Normally a clear pass.

 

Under some circumstances I might chose something else, of course. No idea why this thread was reopened....
