OleBerg Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Partner has spades. With no agreements, even Osama Bin Laden would choose to let one of his cuebids be in hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_h Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Even so with a partner you don't play with much, 2S should always be natural given we have shown spades with our X. So partner should not give us a headache and should use 2H as a cuebid if he needed one. So I would just bid 4S over 2S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgr Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 What is the difference between 2♠ and DBL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flameous Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Dbl is support I'd say. Could also be looking for penalty though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgr Posted June 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Dbl is support I'd say. Could also be looking for penalty though. DBL is 3 card; 2S is 4 card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Partner promised spades. I'm willing to bet he doesn't have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 I can't see any point in using double to show three-card support for a suit that's known to be exactly four cards long. I'd use double as takeout, showing something like a 2245 or 1345 shape. The default meaning is probably strong balanced, looking for a penalty.

kgr Posted June 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Partner had Spades and tried to show it twice.But I thought he asked a stop in Spades (and had a Heart stop). 3NT was down while 4S would have made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
