rogerclee Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Matchpoints, Red vs White, Third Seat ♠Qxxx ♥Q ♦Jxxxx ♣Axx 2♣ - 2♦2♥ - 2♠3♣ - 3♦3♥ - 4♣5♠ - 6♣7♣ - ? 2♠ was Kokish, 6♣ showed 1 or 4 keycards outside of spades. This field is quite good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy4hoop Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 I think bidding 7♥ puts too much faith in partner having the ♥J or seven of them so I guess I pass and pray for partner's forgiveness when plus 2140 isn't good enough.

han Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Partner can easily have ♥ AKxxxx ♦A ♣KQJxxx or ♥AKxxxx ♦AK ♣KQJ10x, it would be quite a gamble to convert. If partner was looking for the heart queen he might have tried 6D last round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suokko Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 I trust my partner that he would investigate for heart grand if singleton Q is enough for conversion. But I suspect partner holds at least some spots in hearts for that strong biding when he knows we have only preference to clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlickRicky Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hi Roger, This seems like an easy pass. Even if 7H is cold, you will do fine being in 7C. Ricky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pclayton Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Pass. You have tools to find a grand while others may struggle. Besides that, there's no way to find out about the ♥J here. Bidding 7♥ is losing bridge IMO even though it may be right a lot of the time. You are taking a stab at an unknown card to try to turn a 80% board into a 90% board.

benlessard Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Partner could have bid 6S/6Nt as pick a slam to suggest 7H despite clubs being agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
