gwnn Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 [hv=d=s&v=e&n=sxhtxdt9xxxcaq98x&w=skqxxhqjxxdjxckjx&e=sajxxhakxxxdxcxxx&s=stxxxhxxdakqxxctx]399|300|Scoring: IMP[/hv] p1♥-p-2NT-3♦p-5♦-p-px-p-5♥-pp-6♦-x-end 1♥ is the systemic opening bid on 4-4 in the majors (Norwegian pair) 4♦ was the last making contract. Of course it's absurd to expect absolute DD precision but this still feels like too much. Out of the 4 players who got too active? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotShot Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 To North 4♥ seems a making contract so bidding 5♦ seems necessary, but 6♦ is to much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) I am okay with the bidding till 5 ♦, despite the fact that I had choosen some different bids.But than:East passed 5 ♦ and pulled the double to 5 ♥. This is a massive overbid. Silly rest edited due to Helenes observation: Now, I like souths bidding and in a sense I do understands North 6 Diamond bid. They made a slam try, so 5 Heart is bound to make. 6 Diamond should be a cheap sacrifice with so much shape and so many surprises in the side suits.I am really not sure what is right here in the long run. Maybe defending is a small price you have to pay. Edited June 15, 2009 by Codo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 South with a nearly balanced hand bids 6 ♦ after he heard the double of 5 ♦? No it was North who bid 6♦. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_h Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 bad luck. East did "well" to get the opponents to go for more of a phantom sac. I would've passed the X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Do you have the bidding correctly here? If you were watching the same table as I did, I'm pretty sure east rebid 5♥ over 5♦. I was watching Lavazza vs Erichsen, with Bocchi sitting north. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 6♦ lol?!? Btw w/r I think north should overcall 2NT, and I think it's pretty clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted June 16, 2009 Report Share Posted June 16, 2009 Hi, the 2NT bidder should X 5D, he does not want to invite 6H,he does not even want to play 5H:I can understand the 6D bidder, although he should wonder,what the 3D hand looked like, be happy they got in and passit out With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
