bid_em_up Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Ummm, what methods do you play over the 1NT opener, and shouldn't that factor into our decision? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Easy pass. We have a pile of quacks and they haven't advertised a fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilkaz Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 My hand looks like a duck pond ! Pass all day long at IMPs and a reluctant pass red vs white at MP since if we double and don't catch PD with support, this will get ugly.

Apollo81 Posted November 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 At the table, this hand's partner hesitated significantly over the 1NT opening. This hand reopened with a double in the position given which obviously was rolled back later by the director. In the course of the director call, two of the local experts were asked about this hand and both said they would have doubled anyway. One even said that pass had no merit. Personally, I think double has little merit at these colors given partner could not act over the 1NT opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the hog Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 Pass also. I think double has "no merit." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 The only merit I can see in double is they might not know you are insane and bid 3♥. Of course "they might not know I'm insane" is not really a valid excuse to make a bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
