the hog Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 4C. 5 if they were vul. Don't understand a pass. Sure, you have no problem yet, but you are not giving your opponents any semblance of a problem, just an easy run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I am also not warning them of bad breaks....but then many may feel that is of little importance. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 4♣, down the middle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSGibson Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 If no systems, I'm bidding 3 hearts, planning to "run" to 4 clubs. If I'm playing my favorite system, suction, I'm bidding 3NT to show either the pointed or round suits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inquiry Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 2NT or 4NT. 2NT is "two places to play" and does not promise minors. 4NT might should probably promise the same. 4NT is just a little too rich for me at these colors and with possible bad splits for them, so 2NT it is.

whereagles Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I like 3NT. Pard will wiggle a bit but we'll find a suit eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianshark Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 3NT has a certain appeal to it alright. Nobody, including p will have a clue what's going on. It's just as pre-emptive as 4♣ in the sense that if opener bids his suit anyway, he has been forced to guess at a high level and they may be in the wrong game or miss slam.

Apollo81 Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I like a 4♣ bid. This seems like a nice balance between safety and preemption. I think if you bid 5♣ they will just double you most of the time, and they will be right more often than not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
