TylerE Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 X = Penalty, but may not be beat in hand off the top. Partner has shown some values here, after all. AxxxxKQxxKxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 X = Penalty, but may not be beat in hand off the top. Partner has shown some values here, after all. AxxxxKQxxKxxx While I'm fine with 3♠ on this, it isn't close to a double of 4♥. I'm more inclined to peg this hand as something more like: AQxx, Kx, AQxx, xxx Pard is allowed to pull, but I wouldn't expect it more than 15% of the time.

cherdano Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 X = Penalty, but may not be beat in hand off the top. Partner has shown some values here, after all. AxxxxKQxxKxxx I agree it is penalty, but probably with s.th. like ♥AQ. With the hand above, I would be expecting overtricks in 4♥ more often than undertricks. How many tricks do you think we get on defense when partner may have KQxxx xx Jxxx xx? Or KQxxxx xx xxx xx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
