Guest Jlall Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Light it up yo. As a passed hand partner will know youre almost always void so he can make a good decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnszsun Posted March 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Light it up yo. As a passed hand partner will know youre almost always void so he can make a good decision.I got it. Partner must have good reasons if he decides to pass my double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I doubt that you will get many new answers to your question, the double is quite clear for a passed hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Somewhere I saw the proposal that(1♥)-pass-(2♥)-pass(pass)-2♠shows a classical t/o of hearts while dbl would be more minor oriented. Since a natural 2♠ is "impossible" be a hand that couldn't overcall immediately. By the same token, 4♠ should show this hand. But ok, that doesn't give p the option of defending 4♥ so I suppose I have to double with this hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a classical t/o of hearts, you dbl 1♥, no? :) I prefer that this 2♠ shows 4 cards and heart length. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a classical t/o of hearts, you dbl 1♥, no? :D I prefer that this 2♠ shows 4 cards and heart length. OK but you could have classical shape but being too weak for that. Or maybe you have spades plus one minor. (obviously this needs to be clarified, lest p takes out you spades/clubs 2♠ bid to 3♦). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 "Light it up yo."Translation please; I have no idea what this means. I'll bet you could work out it doesn't mean pass.

the hog Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 It means double. Thx. Hmm. I didn't know the English language had changed as much since I have been living here in Laos. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the hog Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Surely they have slang in Laos as well! :lol: Yeah they do, but unfortunately I am very slow in picking up Laos. Interestingly though, some of the Laos idiomatic expressions are almost identical to those we use in English.eg "Two faced" is "two headed" in Laos .
