000002 Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 April 13,i met this hand on the chinese national bridge association 2007 "canghe autocar" cup.opps preempt 2♠ with an noncommittal minor,pd overcall 3♥ and RHO jump 4♠ with a big sound.i look my hand and glance the tray,it's cool and jarless .i take 4nt and plop on tray, in silence. KJXAXXXXAQ9QT my 4NT forced pd to select in minors, i planed to back 5♥ hint slam 6♥.but, when tray back, he bid 5♥ directly.i was confused with my hand now,i fetch a coin from my packge,threw in the sky and pray god to decide.3judgements were looking me and they all smiled :blink: . GOD,he told me passed and it's successed. any clue to signoff 5♥? regards 000002 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Well "Yes", your hand is not as good as it looks at first glance. Your KJ of S are probably wasted, and quite likely lho is sitting over some of your minor suited cards. Having said this, it is hard to find a hand for pd where he would bid 3H and you don't have a play for slam - voidKQJxxxKxxxxxx This is NOT a 3H bid. Even with a 7th heart and 1 less C this hand is not worth 3H.I would have bid 6H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 Well... I would definitely bid 3♥ on that, though I can see it might lead to trouble. Good hand for discussion. We should poll it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
