rogerclee Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Even Steve Robinson would open this 1♦. This hand is too good to open 5♦, and 6♦ is just going swinging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

effervesce Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 [hv=d=w&v=b&n=sk9832ht74dtckt42&w=shkq632daqj75432c&e=sjt5ha85dk6cq8753&s=saq764hj9d98caj96]399|300|Scoring: IMPs[/hv] After opening 1♦, it is still tough to find out not only about the A of hearts and K of diamonds, but partner's heart length to bid the grand. In any case, what are you going to do - double exclusion keycard for diamonds? I opened 4NT, and we reached 6♦. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
