badderzboy Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 [hv=d=s&v=n&n=sjxxh986dk10xxxcxx&s=sakqxhak10xxxdcaxx]133|200|Scoring: MP[/hv] We were playing Benjimanised Acol with 2♣ an Acol 2 in an undisclosed Suit , 2♦ as strong G/f . What do u open 1♥/2♣s/2♦s and whats your plan. West bids ♣s at the lowest level over whatever you open. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 2 ♣ 2 ♦2 ♥ 4 ♥pass Acol two in Heart, enough for game, no slam.+ 680? Fine, but I won´t reach the slam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceptic Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 no expert here but with 3 losers why not just bid game forcing bid "2 diamonds" or is that a bit to obvious, I must be missing a brain cell here 2D 3C 3D P 3H p 4H p *then what ever you decide to do after that will get you to 5 level or poss slam I am not sure 4HCP from pard is enough to bid anything other than cheapest Heart next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASkolnick Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Um, why is this a great slam to be in anyway? You have one sure loser in clubs and need to pick up hearts for no losers, and ruff a losing club. So, even if you can pick up the hearts when they are 3-1 with the stiff honor offsides, if the person who wins the losing club has a third heart, you would be down. I guess you are OK if you duck a club first provided a trump is not led. But its not like this is a good slam to be in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
