gnasher Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Why does this merit a "LOL", with or without ♠Q? (Not that I think any posts deserve a "LOL", but that's a cultural thing.) I'd bid 1♠. I've never overcalled at the one-level on a 20-count, but it's hard to imagine our making any game but 4♠. Pass, hoping to be able to double 1NT for penalties or 2♣ for takeout, might work, but we might also find ourselves defending 1♥ opposite ♠Jxxx and ♦Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Why does this merit a "LOL", with or without ♠Q? Because he's lazy and moderators are too awed to give him a spam warning :) Incidently, I'll double, intending to bid 2♠ over the likely 2♣ by pard. The reason for action is we need very, very little in pard to make game. Heck, xxxxxxxxxxxxx is probably enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 After partner has passed we rate to have fit on one of our suits. Start with 1♠ and find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtvesuvius Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 I have never overcalled on the one level with a 20 count before either... Well, maybe once before I learned about doubling and correcting... But this does look like a good situation to try it. I'm going to double however, since if partner bids clubs, maybe I should just shoot out 3NT... I will hopefully have avoided a ♣ lead, and even just the Q♠ or J♦ from partner gives me a good play at this. The real problem is whether a 4-3♠ fit may play better... I doubt it.
