gwnn Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 KT576432752T2 Pard opens 1N, favorable mp's. Do vulnerability and form of scoring matter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Transfer, even with 65432 for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Transfer, wtp? 76432 does not matter. How many tricks we have for partner in NT? 1 (king)How many tricks we have for partner in NT? 1 (king) + 1 (if opener only has 2, and hearts break 4-2, sometimes partner has 3 or hearts break 3-3 => at least 2). Of course you know this argument. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcphee Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I fail to appreciate why simply because we hold low cards we should not transfer. 1NT may fail when 2H may make. Bidding makes it more difficult for the enemy to bid and it could easily be a hand that belongs to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambolino Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 transfer, but with 2 jacks or a queen more i'd pass for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenrexford Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I'm tempted by Stayman. But, for me ...2♥ would be corrected with 3♠/2♥ (which might actually be the right contract, strangely), and I am not taking that gamble. If ...2♥ were drop-dead with no corrections, 2♣ for me. Otherwise, yeah transfer. Hate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 I actually play by agreement I transfer (or anyway don't pass 1NT) 100% of the time with a five card major. I think it's the right thing to do bridgewise, and that way if you pass and later balance into a major you can be sure it's a four card suit with another place to play.

gwnn Posted August 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 Weeeee first ever unanimous poll Our opps passed 1NT and just made it or +1 and 2h would have been very bad. I would have transfered without much thought but was wondering if this was clear or not. edit: :( 41-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
