cherdano Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 I don't understand. Doesn't everything you said about if the opponents bid 4♥ apply if we double 3♦ equally as well as if we bid 3♥? Except that partner will be more accurate since the double is descriptive but the 3♥ bid is vague? Maybe there's no difference for you, but for me X of 3D doesn't invite 4S per se. It encourages a 3S-bid but doesn't set up a force, meaning that we can sell out to 3H undoubled. Ok it seems to me like I would never double 3♦ without at least a game invitation. We will just say everyone's judgment is stupendous and it's simply a mild disagreement about the meaning of a bid that probably has never come up for either of us :angry: I admit my guess would have been "X shows cards, maybe interest in defending". So a 3rd option here. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keylime Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 I bid game at IMPs; at MPs I make an invite - it's almost excusable at IMPs but at MPs the field may be giving up at +140. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
