Fluffy Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 nobody vulnerable you pass as dealer, LHO opens 3♥, passed back to you, you hold ♠A863♥♦763♣A98752 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 No. The absence of a H raise and my void suggests Hs in partner's hand. I have 2 tricks, she would need to have 3, so double is a poor bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Double seems clear. Partner knows we are a passed hand, we have Aces which will be useful whatever partner does next, and we may be cold for a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Very easy double as a passed hand. If partner passes I'm very happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Double, we've got two aces which is plenty defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effervesce Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Pass. The hand is pretty defensive, despite the void. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nige1 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 None vul. you hold as dealer ♠A863 ♥- ♦763 ♣A98752_P (3HE) _P (_P)?? IMO X = 10, P = 8, 4C = 4+500 :) Shome mishtake surely? That's spoilt my record :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascade Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Double seems clear. Partner knows we are a passed hand, we have Aces which will be useful whatever partner does next, and we may be cold for a game. Yes we have a great hand for partner if she has a clear action. The problem is that partner with 3=4=3=3 or similar won't know to bid clubs. Nevertheless double seems reasonable. If I am ever going to double as a passed hand this is it ~ a club less and a diamond more would be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
