whereagles Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Pard's expected 7-8 hcp would have to be magical for a slam to be on, so I'll just bid 4♥. If you play that dbl + 4♥ shows just about this hand, by all means use that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 X, followed by 4H or 5H over 4S. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Agree with double followed by 4H. If partner jumps to 5m then we should have slam. edit: I think we just agreed that double followed by 4H does not show a monster here, just a decent hand with hearts and at least one other place to play.

jdonn Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Dbl then 4♥ over 3NT or 4m, 4♠ over 4♥. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Gotta start with X and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 X followed by 4♥ but unfortunately, as Han says, it doesn't quite reveal this hand. I'm not going to force to the 5-level. What about inverted non-leaping Michaels? 4♣ is a ♥ one-suiter, 4♥ shows hearts and clubs :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilkaz Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Gotta start with X and see what happens. Yep..just too much potential here to bid only 4♥, but what are you doing when LHO raises to 4♠ and PD passes ? Are you bidding 5♥ or doubling 4♠ at this vul ? If you dbl again, how well do you trust PD to make the proper decision ? Fun hand.. neilkaz .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Dbl then 4♥ over 3NT or 4m, 4♠ over 4♥. Fine with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pclayton Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Double then 4H. Afterward, I'll explain that it doesnt actually show a flexible hand but rather a hand too good for a direct 4H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keylime Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 Double caters to many things (including a pass) and is most flexible, showing a good hand versus a 4♥ hand. If pard finds a 5m call, then we're almost golden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 With gullible opps and/or a forgiving director, announce a skip bid and then bid 4♥, to show a strong one-suited hand. Otherwise double first. Note: 1st comment not serious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
