rogerclee Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 This is a very, very clear pass. Partner is marked with short diamonds and didn't act. Thus, he has a bad hand, and this is definitely your best spot. Not only that, what would you bid? 2NT is an overbid, not only on points, but the fact that you have no source of tricks. I think you'll agree that any suit bid or a takeout double is even more insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Hi, Pass, I fail to find a reasonable bid, the onlybid I may think off is 2NT, but the shape andso is the HCP count. Add to this the remark, that they are red, whichI did not realize until I read it, and pass is clear. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mbodell Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Alright, so if pass out partner is in the clear, is direct seat to blame for missing an ok game or doubled penalty on this hand or is this a "preempts work" sort of hand [hv=d=e&v=e&s=sqj8652hk976d4c32]133|100|Scoring: MP2♦ - ??[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Could we have another first unanimous pole? Seriously, clear pass. It's often very hard to get into the auction when the opponents have a much better fit that they never bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Would pass with an ace more than this. As for parftner's hand: noone to blame. Preempts work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skjaeran Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Clearcut pass IMO. Don't consider anything else at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
