mtvesuvius Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 NV ns V, at Matchpoints, with LHO dealing, you hold: ♠ AK♥ AT73♦ QJ6♣ J852 (3♦) - P - (P) - ? I bid 3NT (LOL?), is double right here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 It's 3NT or pass. Doblo malo!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Agree with Josh. Close between these two calls. And being oldand scary is a reason to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerclee Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I would pass without thinking too hard about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'll pass too. 100 a trick, although I don't think we are getting 3♦ too many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 pass with 15?, no thanks. 3NT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoi5 Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I would have doubled as East. 3NT goes down if you misguess the ♥Q... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 East has an auto double of 3♦. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_h Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Think I'm a passer. The opps are red so they'll likely have their preempt and I have a pretty boring 15 count with only HT as the tenace. Maybe if partner has a random flat 10 count, we don't have that many finesses through our righty. Also agree that partner has an auto double.

the hog Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 pass with 15?, no thanks. 3NT 3NT with a poor 15 count and no source of tricks? No thanks. Clear pass for me. Eh. Just looked at the hand after I first posted. Did your partner fall asleep in the bidding? Why no double? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 East has an auto double of 3♦. Yes easy double from PD On the given sequence I pass as I'd want a bit more for 3nt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
