jdonn Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I'm fairly sure I would not double any amount of notrump until 7. I understand you don't want partner to lead his minor, but he might get it right anyway so I'll just hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H_KARLUK Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Double it? Sorry, Nay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 No I wouldn't, especially at MPs. I have no reason to think pard won't lead a spade, and this looks like the field contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtvesuvius Posted April 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I didn't either, but partner chose to "Sac" over 3NT with KJ9xx xx x QJTxx. The 1NT bidder had Qxx♠, so 3NT is an easy set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

655321 Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I didn't either, but partner chose to "Sac" over 3NT with KJ9xx xx x QJTxx. Instead of a Prevention Double to stop partner saccing, I think this calls for a partner sacking to prevent this sort of thing from happening again.

Gerben42 Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 yes, easy make, 2 hearts, 5 diamonds and 2 clubs, claimed at trick 1. WTP? When you double opps won't claim, they will try for an overtrick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
