You are south and make a takeout X as a passed hand. Partners X is penalty. Pass or bid on? Is this a wtp?What if partner was dealer and a passed hand?

skjaeran Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Easy pass. I'm a passed hand and I have pretty good defensive values. Partner won't make a borderline double at IMPs, so I'm anticipating a couple of undertricks. Partner has good trumps and something in addition. And probably a good lead. Oops, forgot I was in the B/I forum. :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I expect him/her to have stepped a little out of line with that rebid. I'm used to having partners I can trust when it comes to doubling partscores at IMPs. And I act accordingly.

TimG Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 What do you think LHO has for his vul against not 3♥? Opener probably has a hand a little too good for an initial weak two-bid. Or, maybe a flawed weak two-bid, something like a side four-card spade suit or void. I expect that partner has the best hand at the table. Probably 1 1/2 trump tricks and values on the side -- a hand that wasn't quite good enough to make a 1NT overcall. There is certainly a danger that the opponents have a club semi-fit and diamond shortness and will take quite a few tricks in 3HX. But, I think in the long run double will be a winner.
