pclayton Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Midnight Swiss: ♠AKQxx, ♥Q, ♦xxxx, ♣xxx. You open 1♠ as dealer RED/RED. Pard raises to 3♠; presumably a limit raise with 4 pieces. Your call? By the way, please state your action if you are NV. Oops - please edit the poll. I don't think insufficient bids are suitable for a poll.

mikeh Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I must be missing something. Partner heard me open and invited me to bid game. One school of invites says 'bid game if you have a reason to' and the other, to which I belong, says 'bid game unless you have a reason not to'. Either way, I have a reason not to (I barely have an opening, and the trump Q is not as useful, opposite 4 pieces, as it might be, since the suit may be 2-2), and I have no reason to, either. As for the risk of balancing: when was the last time you saw even nv opps balance on this auction? Midnight Swiss's are not the wild parties they were when I first played in them, but even then, I wouldn't have bid game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
