han Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I'll go with 4H at these colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I think 4♥ is obvious under these conditions. If they were going down or I go down too much....oops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Action? Sure, I will ponder, scratch my head, pick up the 4♥ card, put it back before anyone could see it, and finally pass. I am sure this is the only way to make partner lead his shorter major without doubling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I'll bid, though this is clearly a rather risky proposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeh Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 Anyone who passes doesn't deserve suits like this B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I prefer Arend's method, but on BBO there is no such option B) 4♥ :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchett Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 4♥, pretty clear at the vul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker_gib Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Anyone who passes doesn't deserve suits like this :) LOL ! :) Agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmunte1 Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 4♥ i don't see other options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 4♥ is normal. It would a tougher decision with a 6 card suit instead of 7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Wow, almost unanimous, and against what I did (but I had some match-circumstances, namelly my partner had been dummy last 4/6 boards) 4♥ = +4 IMPspass = +1 IMPsdouble = -8 IMPs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtK78 Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 I would bid 4♥. Pass is certainly the only other option. Did you really double? Is that why it is an option? That is quite a position to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 double (lead your shortest major) is certainly the best shot to defeat the contract, but I was a passer anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 double (lead your shortest major) is certainly the best shot to defeat the contract, but I was a passer anyway. Lol, I was the doubler :P I'm really surprised that there's such an overwhelming group bidding 4♥... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
