ASkolnick Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 If the question is "What do you think it is?", I still think the response should be Gerber.If the question is "How should you play it?", I think a self-splinter is better, For those who say that hand does not Exist. (Keylime is close to what I am saying) AKJxxxxxKxKxx What do you open? Probably 1S. If partner can respond, you have the following. With no Aces, chance for game.With one Ace, game is probable.With two Aces, I want to be in slam if partner has either 2 spades or the Queen of spades.With three Aces, I want to be in slam. However, I can't think of a 2nd type hand where this would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOL Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Auto splinter is expert standard, and probably barely (just because many don't know the sequence). I would expect maybe 1 % of the tournament bridge population to play it that way though. Lets call it forum poster standard? Also as an aside if you play strong club then this is like 66.
