han Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Lefty and partner pass and righty opens 2S weak. What's your call with these two hands? Assume IMP scoring, let's say both are vulnerable. QJAAKJxQJxxxx QJAQJ9xAKJxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 3♣ on each. Hope I don't miss game. I don't totally hate 3NT on the second one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo81 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'm not sure which one of you to agree with, but I certainly wouldn't bid anything other than 3♣ in either case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnasher Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 If I were looking for a non-3♣ bid to not hate, I might suggest 3♠ on the second one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 3♣ on both although I also don't hate 3♠ on the 2nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be a very clear-cut choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echognome Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Gnomed! I liked 3♣ and 2NT on the second. I certainly understand the dangers of 2NT (partner transferring us into ♥s), but with so much in the majors and a trick source, seemed a reasonable shot. It also is safer than 3NT (but given LHO is a passed hand that danger is mitigated regardless). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be a very clear-cut choice.Well I suppose a more imaginative player might be spoilt for choice e.g ♠ QJ ♥ A ♦ AKJx ♣ QJxxxx 3♣ = 10, 3♠ = 8, _X = 5. ♠ QJ ♥ A ♦ QJ9x ♣ AKJxxx 3♣ = 10, 3♠ = 9, 3N = 7, 2N = 6, _X = 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
