hrothgar Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 What a royal pain in the butt... I'd start with 2♥, planning to rebid 4♣ over the anticipated 3♦ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerE Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Partner bids 2♠ over 2!H, 4 ♠ and 4+ ♦ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFA Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 3♥ setting trumps then 5♦ voidwood over 3♠/4♣ cue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimG Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I think I would have started with 1♥ intending to bid 5♣ on the second round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerE Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Tim - Note the system...1♥ is limited to 15 highs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimG Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Tim - Note the system...1♥ is limited to 15 highs I think I would have fudged it. I'm not a fan of opening wild two-suiters with an artificial 1C or 2C, too easy to get preempted out of being able to show both suits.

Lobowolf Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Tim - Note the system...1♥ is limited to 15 highs I think I would have fudged it. I'm not a fan of opening wild two-suiters with an artificial 1C or 2C, too easy to get preempted out of being able to show both suits. I see the rationale (though I don't agree with it). I just had to point out with respect to "fudging it" my amusement at something you don't see every day...wanting to downgrade a 2-loser hand.
