ArtK78 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Double. If this were a 1♦ opening, I would bid 1♠, hoping to get a second chance to show the other suits if needed. But over 2♦ I want to show everything right away. The hand is lighter than I normally would have for a direct action over a preempt, but the shape of the hand warrants an action.

mtvesuvius Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Double for me too... Although I have a 5th♠, if I bid 2♠, chances are that the ♥ suit will be lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnJoe Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Double and pass 3 clubs??You don't want to lose the heart suit, now you are losing the spade suit!! :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 2S. If I don't bid spades now, we could lose the spade suit. If I dbl first and then bid spades, in many partnerships that shows a strong onesuiter too big to overcall (while also not too shapely to hate defending in case for some reason partner decided to defend 2DX) and this hand isn't it.

whereagles Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 2S. If I don't bid spades now, we could lose the spade suit. And if you don't dbl now, you lose the heart suit :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
