Fluffy Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 [hv=s=sqhaxxxdkqj10xck9x]133|100|[/hv] We are vulnerable and the biding goes W - N .- E - S-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.1♦1♠-2♣*-2♠ 2♣* = Non forcing. I wanted to raise, but I though game could be possible our side if partner happened to have 1 heart. That would be quite likelly if he had 3 diamonds, so I wanted to investigate his diamond support. Given that opponents would bid 3♠ 100% I thouigh there was no trouble. W - N .- E - S-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.1♦1♠-2♣*-2♠-3♦!3♥-4♦ -4♥ Now it was clear partner was 4135, 3136, or 4126 so I bid game confidently. Wich was doubled. The full hand.

hotShot Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Let me repeat: - your partner bit a non forcing 2♣ showing 5+♣ with a weak hand- knowing about your ♣ fit, you suspected a doublefit in the minors, so instead of preempting 4♣ at once, you decided to leave lots of bidding space to opps and help them to find out about their doublefit in the majors.- after opps found out about their doublefit in the majors and that they can bid game and that they are holding a very good (for them) trump break against each of your minors, you sacrifice in red.
