mtvesuvius Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 This is Advanced and Expert Class Bridge, if the problem was the number of cards, I would bet that around half can count that high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy_h Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Easy 2D. Everything else is either a misdesription or an overbid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickf Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 What am I missing? 2C asks for simple preference. I think 2D is the best description of my pile. nickfsydney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 This looks like a B/I problem: 2♦, but of course, this is a problem for those benighted souls who open 1♦ with 4=5 in the minors B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whereagles Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 2♦ is the book bid, yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effervesce Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 Damn, I thought all BBOers were chronic overbidders - nobody calling for a 2NT bid? 2D does seem a slight underbid IMO - how does partner to go on and bid with a 15-16 count. I'm divided between 2D and 2NT, but as a junior I suppose I'd have to bid 2NT - have to maintain the reputations of juniors you know :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 2♦, nothing else is remotely tempting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtvesuvius Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 2♦, I'm a junior, but I see no other remotely appealing options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted May 30, 2009 Report Share Posted May 30, 2009 2♦. This is a max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athene Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 2♦. No 11 count, no aces, no spots, no trick source. If partner does something over 2♦ - ok, then I might admit to having a 10 count. A more interesting problem is what you bid if partner continues with 3♣ over 2♦, perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dake50 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Would partner raise with H-Axx? So the best H-fit is xxx/Hx. 2D gets more appealing. Does partner insist rote "4-pieces to raise"? Will he now 2H over 2D? 2D to partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he now 2H over 2D? 2D to partner. With a minimum, partner would raise hearts directly with 1354, in my methods. If partner rebids 2♥ over the 2♦ preference, you thus have an easy raise to game.
