Fluffy Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 I though our best chance was to find partner with ♦K109, but seems I was wrong, LHO was junior opponent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASkolnick Posted December 24, 2008 Report Share Posted December 24, 2008 Any reason not to be in 6♣ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gather we didn't have a junior partner. Four juniors at the table, actually :rolleyes: This was on international duty. +700 = good bridge Partner may be junior by age, but he is not a junior in the bridge sense. Bridge juniors don't pass with ♦QT98-8th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridge juniors don't pass with ♦QT98-8th. Well, in fairness, there aren't many bids he can make that just show diamonds...and 2♦ seems rather inadequate. Maybe his plan was to preempt next round!

Fluffy Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 yeah, our 1♥bid preempted partner from preempting, its our fault! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtvesuvius Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 I would take it and return a low ♦... Much to my suprise, we would take the first 8 tricks :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossoneri Posted December 25, 2008 Report Share Posted December 25, 2008 I would go up with the A and return J...would be much to my amusement of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
