TylerE Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Pass. I don'y expect to beat this profitably (e.g. more than 1) when partner can't find a balancing X. Partner can't have heart length on this auction, so I'm not worried about getting passed out when it's right to act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Pass. Too balanced for me. Pass. I don'y expect to beat this profitably (e.g. more than 1) when partner can't find a balancing X. Partner can't have heart length on this auction, so I'm not worried about getting passed out when it's right to act. Balancing double? Partner has already passed over 2♥. I am pretty confident partner won't be making a penalty double here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Pass. Should be unanimous beginning with the second response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winstonm Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Pass. There is no reason to think they aren't bidding to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cascade Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Pass I stay fixed. I need about another king before I bid at this level with this sort of distribution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_KARLUK Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Double. Assumed 2♥ as single suiter weak. I'd rather be lucky than good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfay Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 PASS!!! At these colors I could definitely go for a HUUUGEEE number. I'm thinking long distance to my grandma, area code included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

effervesce Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Auto-pass. Move a heart to a spade and I'd double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdaming Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 there may be times that double will profit but pass is FAR more reasonable IMO as double as tons to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 That's funny. Despite me being the only one to double, I can make a better case for pass than the rest: 4♥ is usually bid either on power, in which case you're in trouble if you double, or shape, in which case pard is short in hearts and didn't double 1st round, thus he's broke and you got no shape to compensate.
