Guest Jlall Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I would usually pass, MP white/white you need to bid though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo81 Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 Given that we are NV at MPs, I think 2♠ stands out by a mile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halo Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 2S I might still bid 2S vulnerable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshs Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I am passing despite the colors. You really need a lot more to bid 2M when your RHO bids 1N then you do normally (especially with 3 small trumps). And in this auction, partner is marked with 4+H (I have 2 and no neg x), and our diamond holding couldn't be much worse, so our hands fit like crap. I honestly expect down 3 in 2S. OK, that will probably tie the +150 I expect for them in 1N, but just as white vs white makes me want to bid over 1N, white vs white makes them want to bid over 2S, so they will x or bid on more agressively then normal... The main upside of 2S is that they may end up in a lower scoring part score like 3D, so thats the one upside of bidding. Then again, partner with 5413 or 5512 might compete to 3S over 3D (taking me seriously) and thats going to get wacked.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I am raising all day. It works so much better than it should since they make lots of wrong decisions. Also I'm not worried about the lead since partner isn't on lead unless they go back to diamonds, which would make me happy anyway. I actually like my fit as far as shape, partner has implied heart length due to no 1♥ opening or negative double, so my ruffing value is very strong. Josh #2 I didn't notice you had also mentioned the heart length. I view this as a positive not a negative. Though I guess it may end up depending what my exact spade spots are.

MickyB Posted October 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Though I guess it may end up depending what my exact spade spots are. seven-six-four. I bid 2♠ due to the conditions. Partner (over)bid 4♠ holding AQ98xx AKx 9x QJ, this was three off when trumps broke 4-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 2S seems normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 Partner's 4S is horrible with a 1N bid behind him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 I think you have to bid 2♠. There's a chance 1NT will be passed out and that's probably not too good for our side. If RHO had doubled, then you could afford to pass and bid 2♠ later without fear of mis-lead-directing pard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
