Cascade Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 That makes some sense. Although we would have to change our meta-rules. Currently any free raise to 4minor is forcing (unless this is patently ludicrous). It is not quite true that there are three forcing raises since occasionally in response to 4th suit forcing partner will bid at or beyond 3♣. This is not that likely on the actual auction but on a similar auction, say 1♦ 1♥; 2♣ 2♠ 4sf, it is more likely. I am not sure if we would want to change our rules depending on the level of the 4th suit bid. I am not entirely sure how we would modify our rule for when 4minor is invitational. I will give it some more thought. On this particular sequence we do seem to have plenty of room to force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Without a different agreement I'd expect 1♥ - 1♠ - 2♣ - 4♣ to show a distributional invite with 5-card support. That's how it's played in Norway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
