sceptic Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I think I would bid 2 diamonds I dont think passing 1 spade x is going to be quite as good as I would like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I will pass, this hand screams misfit. To be making a game (5♦) I need quite a lot of ♦ from partner to ruff ♠, besides they risk being overruffed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 It's either pass or 2♦, depending on the mood. Anything else would be over-optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I'd pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I opened 1♠ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 if the spade x'es are literal (lower than the 7) passing is hard, but I was taught misfits need to pass as soon as possible and if opps bid last, so much the better:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtK78 Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 Assuming that the x's are low, I bid 2♦. Who knows? Maybe they will bid spades again. If I had AJ987 of spades, I might pass out 1♠x, but I am allergic to -160. Partner could be 1444 or 0445 for his double, and we have a 10 card diamond fit.

Guest Jlall Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 I would pass probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianshark Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 2♦ for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted October 11, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I refuse to answer without knowing the spots. Sorry cant provide that information. this was from the partnership bidding tables, I was on my laptop and I cant find the hand. Another question for the 1♦ openers - without any interference would you reverse into ♠ over a 1nt from p? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gifster Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 I share the allegy to -160 but -500 I am more allergic to--If we bid, three things can happen and at least two of them are bad:) right now they may well be playing in OUR best strain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtK78 Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 It is possible that partner has a hand that looks very much like mine, but in the rounded suits. However, given the 1♠ bid, I strongly suspect that partner has a few diamonds. So I am not worried about going for 500 in 2♦x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
