Do you feel strongly either way I suppose is another thing I'd like to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 I would bid 2NT now. I feel reasonably strongly about bidding, not because our hand is so wonderful, but because of the possibility of the auction being at 4♥ at our next turn to bid. I would rather bid my hand early.

ewj Posted September 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 That is true, although on the downside, game for your side looks quite a long way away, while bidding could help declarer in the play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

han Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Agree with an immediate 2NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewj Posted September 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Ok. This was the call at my table in the match but unfortunately declarer now picked up the trumps (6-3 fit) which he might not have done normally. Just bad luck I suppose...

pclayton Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 I'd probably wait. I don't know if I want pard diving over 4♠ holding 2 defensive tricks and I have an easy 2N bid later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 If bid 2N and partner bids on over 4♠, then I think it will be right. (I trusty my vulnerable opponents, this time.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
