Mbodell Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 [hv=d=e&v=n&s=skq7xxhjda97xxcax]133|100|Scoring: MP(pass)-1♠*-(3♣)-pass(pass)-? 1♠ is a limited (8+)10-15 point hand with 5+ ♠ (and at most 4♥)[/hv] If it matters you are playing in the first round of a good field barometer game and West is a junior international.

cherdano Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 3 diamonds. Playing against a junior international doesn't scare me as long as it isnt CLEE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OleBerg Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Cant keep my fingers away from the double card. If partner bids hearts, I'll convert to spades, showing spades and diamonds. If I thought West was a sound bidder, I'd naturally bid 3♦. Edit: Misread vulnerabilety. I'll go with the obvious 3♦. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 I'll just pass, but don't totally hate 3♦. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 3♦x-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianshark Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 3♦. I want to double, but I can't handle 3 or 4!h from pard so I'll just bid ♦s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 pass, I thought this one was tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 I like pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_h Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 3D. But the more I think about it, pass is good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I'm a passer here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobowolf Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 3D...partner isn't busted (you're against a pass & a preempt) and the hand has good playing strength. Furthermore, partner isn't going to get carried away, because you didn't open a big club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbodell Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 In the actual hand partner has Jxx AT9xxx xx xx and went crazy with a 4♠ bid over my 3♦ that I misplayed (or played for misdefense given bad contract) which was down 3. Most people were down one -100 our way (I think for 3♠-1) or -110 our way for there 3♣ making. West had a strong hand, I'll see if I can find the hand record to post it.

Edmunte1 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Pass, our suits have such poor interior (intermediattes) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benlessard Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 close between 3D and pass. Im not really afraid of -200 since they wont double even if the 3C is fishy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
