655321 Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Pass. Would be nice to double if we could show clubs at the 3 level, but partner will often bid 3♥. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I also pass, switch the majors and I double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skjaeran Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Let's see, a double shows both minors and strength for the 3-level. Uhm, that's what I've got. Thus I double. B) Of course my hand isn't perfect for this action, but I can't wait for those perfectos - then I'll be passing far too much. If partner rebids 3♥ I can live with that.

pclayton Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Double nervously. 2♠ undoubled may be our last plus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascade Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I had a very similar hand yesterday ... AxxKJxx10xxxxx on a slightly different auction (1♥) 1♠ (2♥) ? I doubled here. My hand was a little better with Ax in support of partner but partner had shown less with an overcall compared with an opening bid and your suits are slightly better. I would still double.

Apollo81 Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Unlucky for the doublers, pard has 4531 and you get hacked off in 3♦, going off two. I play the same convention and i have seen how easy it is to go for numbers over IJOs with negative doubles. I considered this a close decision, but it was early in a long match and didn't want to wuss out with 35 boards left to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
