rogerclee Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 1) 1♣-P-1♠-P1NT-P-P-DBLP-2♥-? How do you play double here (by the 1♠ bidder)? 2) 1♣-P-1♠-P1NT-P-P-DBLP-2♥-P-P? How do you play double here (by the 1NT bidder)? Edit: Sorry, fixed the formatting craziness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Please format better, the Doubles are from passers here (5 bids on a line gets you in trouble) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 1. It's card showing. Obviously a max pass - 10-ish and 2-3 hearts. 2. I like to play this as a 'safety double'. I like it to show a max 1N call, 4 decent hearts, AND 3 card support for pard. It invites defending, unless pard bid 1♠ on cheese. ♠Axx ♥KQTx ♦xxx ♣KQx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helene_t Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Wow, first time today someone agrees with me. I should agree with Phil more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 1) Penalties to the extent that can be in, which in this case means a maximum and three good hearts. Opener might take it out with 3=2 or 2=2 in the majors, but will leave it in otherwise. 2) Penalties. The hand posted by pclayton would do nicely, except that I don't want partner to consider pulling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
