CSGibson Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 [hv=d=w&v=e&s=s3hadaqjt9832caq4]133|100|Scoring: IMP(1♠)-p-(3♦)*-?[/hv] 3 diamonds is a constructive 4 card spade raise. Do you blast 5 diamonds here, walk the dog a bit by either passing or bidding 4 diamonds, or do you double then bid diamonds at the 5 level? Something else?

rbforster Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 5♦. Not clear it's making since opps are showing most of the rest of the strength, but at these colors even if I don't make it's might be a good sac. More importantly, one of them probably has short diamonds to bid 5♠ over me, which I'll X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwnn Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 5♦ at any vulnerability, but especially this one. It's overwhelmingly probable that at least one of 4♠ and 5♦ make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skjaeran Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 5♦ for sure. Put some pressure on them. I'm doubling 5♠ (did the 3♦ bidder really rebid 5♠??) to show a (very)good offensive hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
