655321 Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 4♠ for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Pass. Pard is a passed hand and I like our chances for +200 / +500 against a possible minus. Edited: Got the vulnerability wrong. I bid 4♠ then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo81 Posted February 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Pass. Pard is a passed hand and I like our chances for +200 / +500 against a possible minus. They are NV and we are VUL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 4♠. A bit uncomfortable, but might make if pard has no spade wastage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Easy 4S. Bidding 4S over these doubles is a lot diff than bidding at the 5 level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo81 Posted February 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I should have made this a poll, I have responses from good players in each of the following categories so far: easy 4♠4♠, dont like itpass, dont like iteasy pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benlessard Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 At MP-bam partner will make some risky X and expect me to do the same. There is a good chance game is good but game will probably never be great. I dont mind missing a 65% game if on the other side there is hands where 4S has no play wich might be the case if partner X with many 8-10 counts. I dont open 1m light in 3seat so i expect partner to be quick with these Xs. I also expect partner to bid 4S with 5S and big club fit. So under these condition i think pass is reasonnable otherwise i bid 4S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Does "negative" mean that it promises four+ spades? In that case 4♠.Oh well, I suppose he will bid 5♣ if he doesn't have four spades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo81 Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 partner's hand was K10x Kxx Kxx J98x, looks a little silly but it was necessary to double 4♥ in order to tie the board, the other table opened 1♠ with the OP and it went 4♥ X all pass, i did pull the double, so no biscuit this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 partner's hand was K10x Kxx Kxx J98x, looks a little silly but it was necessary to double 4♥ in order to tie the board I love that kind of justification.
