Hanoi5 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Red vs white: ♠KJT42♥54♦65♣AKT9 You're ready to open 1♠ but your RHO was the dealer and did just that! 1♠ Pa 2♠ XPa ??? What do you do now? You're playing imp's, would you do something else if you were playing MP's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OleBerg Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Easy pass at Imp's. Anxious pass at MP's. (Because partners double can be quite a stretch.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I find passing on this auction tends not to get the huge numbers you hope for. But seriously, what else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 what josh's said, don't expect a number, but its surelly our best possible result Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo81 Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I'd say the odds of a set exceed 95%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Pass. Which contract offers the most chances to get rich?And the form of scoring does not matter at all. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Anxious pass at mp's?? Seriously, partner doubled, you have two defensive tricks and KJTxx of trump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OleBerg Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Anxious pass at mp's?? Seriously, partner doubled, you have two defensive tricks and KJTxx of trump. Maybe anxious is to strong a word, but partner doesn't promise the world in the live seat. Just imagine: ♠ -♥ Kxxx♦ QJxx♣ QJxxx Of course this is quite pessimistic, but getting only 100, when we have a better partial, is also a risk. The pass is still obvious though.

the hog Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 I'd say the odds of a set exceed 95%. Gee, I don't think it would be anywhere near that high. However I also don't see a huge alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Hi Ron, having your pestimistic day today? Partner doubled in a live auction and we seem to have 4 tricks even when all spade honours are behind us. I would rate the chance of setting with 98 % as long as partner is no joker who doubles with a hand worse then Oles example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
