mikeh Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 I played once with a good player... an expert but not WC.. who redoubled on this hand type... too bad it went for 1000. Heck, they had 660 available :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobowolf Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 This one is found in the classic "Rebids by the opening preemptor." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobowolf Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 btw fwiw... That's an easy 1♥ opener for me, even red. 11 HCP, two quick tricks, a rebid, 6 losers, all the tens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 LOL don't tell me opener xx'd :rolleyes: or bid 3♥ :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Anyhow, while I don't like being aceless, I do have 11 HCP in my longest suits and 4 T's so I open this 1♥ as it is too strong for 2♥, IMO.

mtvesuvius Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 1♥, wtp? Please don't tell us that this person redoubled or worse yet... or Bid 3♥ (LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted April 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Yes indeed opener XX'ed, perhaps playing catchup after forgetting to open 1♥. These doubles, re-doubles are still causing a lot of problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill1157 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 so if i pass in that situation instead of XXing does that make me WC? Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtK78 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 This hand reminds me of a book that was published in Germany in the mid-1800's. It was titled (in German, of course) "How to Kibbitz a Chess Match." The book consisted of about 100 blank pages except for the last page. On the last page it said (again, in German), "Keep your mouth shut!" That would have been good advice to the player who opened 2♥ when considering his rebid over the balancing double.
