Codo Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 After I doubled and 4 HEart comes back to me I regret that I forgot to bid 2 Club first, but I would double now againI would rate X 10 5 Club 8 anything else 0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Hi, #1 Dbl is ok, you are strong enough to sell the hand as singel suiter with clubs#2 5C Regarding the other options: Pass, a bit cautious, but ok Dbl, would show some strong bal hand, so is out 4S, how many cards to I have, 6? With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Now I see what has happened I wanted to have bid 2♣ before, but I doubled. another double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 I fail to see how bidding 2♣ before would be such a great situation. Partner will play us for better clubs than the double/double route but worse spades (probably just three), and the spade situation is going to be important more often like when he has Kxxx. Personally I think a double the first time is clear, and the second time I hate that partner will probably pass it so much but there is really no alternative at that point.

kgr Posted October 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 partner had:xxxQTxxxxxxxxI DBL'ed first and passed when 4♥ came back to me. LHO had ♠xxx.4♥-2 while 6♣ for us makes. At the table I considered 5♣ but was afraid that both 5♣ and 4♥ would go down. Now I think a 2nd DBL is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
