mike777 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 Prefer astro cuebids here.1h=2h shows 4 spades and longer clubs. and a hand you feel comfortable being at the level you are forcing partner to bid. Another example of making one bid to get the hand of our chests and shutting up then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awm Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 If you're being robbed, I think it's your methods doing the robbing. In order to miss a spade fit here, you need that: (1) you're not playing any conventional method like top and bottom cues or roman jumps or raptor to show spades and clubs (2) partner doesn't normally double in this sequence over 2♥ to show four spades (or your double shows something else). In any case, if your methods potentially fix you I'd stay fixed. Bidding over this with a relatively balanced hand including minimum values for the overcall could easily be stepping into a minefield. There's no reason partner has to hold four spades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm done, 5422 is not great shape. I would have Xed 1H fwiw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skjaeran Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm dead minimum regarding playing strenght for my vulnerable overcall and partner made a simple raise, which doesn't promise much. He'd have doubled 2♥ with 4c♠ and a hand worth competing. So there's no need for me to even think of any further bidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted February 22, 2007 Report Share Posted February 22, 2007 I'm well and truly done with this hand. If we make something partner would have been heard from at his turn to bid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 It takes a bit of effort to lose the S suit, but you did a good job of it here. Now I pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 If partner has ♠ he could've doubled. Pass seems clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
