gwnn Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I don't see the point of the option of "game" if there is no option of "partial". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Invite for me too. It's fairly close. I'd invite if pard just opened 1N instead of overcalling. With LHO opening, this becomes a better hand, since the hooks are working. Our stiff club is a bit of a negative however, since pard has known values across.

whereagles Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 hum.. most evaluation methods I can think of tell me to stop in 2♥. Not sure I'm gonna trust them. First I'll transfer and see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Invite here. I don't want to be in game opposite most hands for partner with bad heart support. As little change as make the hearts AT9xxx and I might bid game, so it's close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dake50 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Vul we need 37% for game: 10imp(620-170) v 6imp(-200-140). This is at least that good. xfer to 4H or xfer then 4H even me immediate 4H whichever is systemic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 37% often gets misapplied, as here. - It only matters on hands where partner would reject an invitation.- It only applies if you are never down more than 1 and never doubled, both of which can happen here with any sort of bad breaks.

y66 Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Per rough 100 deal simulation, 4H makes 51% of the time. On hands where overcaller has 2 hearts and 15 HCPs, 4H makes 12% of the time. 3 hearts and 15 HCPs, 4H makes 34% of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No kidding !! So I'll just xfer and bid 3♥ as a 6 card invite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 I transfer with 2♦. If partner super accept I bid game, else I invite. But with partner over opener it's close to just bidding game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P_Marlowe Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Hi, I would say, it is more a question between invite and pass, I will makean invite, but wont be surprised, if itwould lead to -1. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
