hrothgar Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Opening style matters an awful lot here. If partner is fond of opening light with distributional hands then I'd bid a simple 3N and risk missing slam. If partner favors a sound opening style, then 4♣ is a lot more attractive.

Guest Jlall Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I'd go 4C, good hand though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I'll vote 3NT. Agree it's a close decision and good problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmunte1 Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 4♣, too strong for 3nt, i may miss an easy slam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I'll vote 3NT. Agree it's a close decision and good problem. This is a tough problem for us light openers. I think it's very close between 3NT and 4♣. At MP I'll tend to bid 3NT. But at IMP's I'll make a try for slam, as it's possible to stop in 5♣. If partner rebids 4♥, I'll raise to 5♥.

redbird97 Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 4c. Just a little too much juice to bid 3nt. Though 3nt is my second choice. Slam could easily be cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
