Hanoi5 Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I'd double for takeout and pull 4♥ to 5♣. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 No risk no fun?Against reasonable opps I risk passing, not competing. They have their bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Your options are either Pass or X. I would go with Pass, but the meek may inherite the earth,but they dont win at bridge, or more precise, I guess X is the better call by a fair margin.This would be espesially true red vs. green. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascade Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I'd double for takeout and pull 4♥ to 5♣. If you are going to pull isn't it much better to pull to 4♠. Partner is allowed to be 4=4 or similar in the majors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Dbl seems canonical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, much better, partner will correct to 5♣ if there's no fit in the Majors. (Though I'm expecting partner to pass, mostly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dake50 Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Does partner pass an interesting MM/ M-suit/ C-fit with 8+ HCP? If he doesn't have such a hand, pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
