Benoit35 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Playing pick-up bridge on BBO, I am dealt: ♠KJT762 ♥AJT765 ♣A Love all, RHO in first seat opens (sic) 1♠. Well...? Full deal below (scroll down a bit):...................... [hv=d=s&v=n&n=sh42dqj754ck97653&w=skjt762hajt765dca&e=s83hq83d632cqjt42&s=saq954hk9dakt98c8]399|300|Scoring: IMP1♠ - 2♥ - p - p3♦ - 4♥ - 5♦ - pp - X - all pass[/hv]Down 1, but I think declarer misplayed it - he pulled trumps when he had 10 cross-ruff tricks + the ♥K, which was good after I led the ace. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I wouldn't have bid 4♥ (or even 3 for that matter), for all I know LHO could have a trap pass. P should have bid 5♥. He has excellent support and zero defense. Oh btw of course I agree with Gerben that dbl of 5♦ was terrible. You have a 2♥ overcall over 1♠ and that's it, no reason to bid again unless partner encourages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 2♥ sounds okay, although pass may work. 4♥ was not a good idea. Doubling 5♦ was the worst bid, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 I had bid 2 or 3 heart at the first round and surely passed thereafter. And I had lead the ace of club to avoid the comming endplays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
