I bid 2S, pass, 6D. I got Xed. Partner had x QJ9xxxx T9xx K and diamonds were NOT 3-0 so they were going down, and I went down 2 losing the obvious tricks.

What? You have no sense of humor? LOLOL

Maybe the votes of this board had been a little different, if we had a vision about how weak his NFB bids could be.

I don´t mind my pd to play nfbs very weak, intermedeate or no NFBs at all, but I would like to know his style before I have to judge at slam level.

Opposite this pd I may not even had bid 2 Spade. :D

I gave you all the info I had. Partner was Ron Smith who is known as a very sound bidder actually. He had a double fit and 7-4 and chose to get his suit in before the jumping in spades started. A lot of people (especially of the kit woolsey school) believe in doing this.

x T x A K Q J x x A x x x

 

white/white. You open 1D, LHO bids 1S, partner bids 2H, partner passes. You elect to bid 2S rather than 3C and partner bids 3H. RHO now jumps in with 4S! You elect to pass. Partner balances with 5D and RHO bids 5S lol.

 

Q1: Do you agree with 2S?

Q2: Do you agree with pass?

Q3: What do you do now?

Q4: WTF?!?!?!?!

 

I bid 2S, pass, 6D. I got Xed. Partner had

x Q J 9 x x x x T 9 x x  K and diamonds were NOT 3-0 so they were going down, and I went down 2 losing the obvious tricks.

IMO...

1. 3 = 10, 2 = 8.

2. P = 10, 5 = 9.

3. P (forcing) = 10, 5 N (pick a slam) = 9, 6 = 8, X = 6.

4. Such are the vicissitudes of life :(
