ewj Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 [hv=d=s&v=b&s=sakxhak8xxxxdacax]133|100|Scoring: MP[/hv] Playing with a reasonable player against two fairly weak but aggressive players.. You open 2♣, LHO doubles, partner passes and RHO bids 3♦You bid 3♥ and partner bids 4♥ You haven't asked what the double means but they wouldn't have an agreement...you definitely don't have an agreement about what the pass means but partner would probably have bid with a good suit I expect.

mtvesuvius Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm going to interpret partner's pass as positive... So of course I will bid on, the question is what? I see some serious merit in bidding RKC then asking for the Q♥, but I also need to know about the Q♠. In my methods there is no way to do so... I'm also inclined to try 5♦ and see what partner does, however I will be (sorta) scientific. 4NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I take all of partner's bids as negative. partner could have nothing at all and we go down at the 5 level, but ♥xxx and ♠QJxx for a cold grand is also possible. Partner is not going to evaluate his spade holding no mater what we bid. Alone in the dark, I go for the conservative route and pass.

mike777 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 my guess is in ACBL land many play pass=positive which means pard is forced to xx with nothing. But I still play over x then 2h=same=negative as if opp did not bid. So in OP I bid on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
