655321 Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Umm - did partner overcall 2♣ w/w at MP, or r/w at IMPs? Anyway this is an easy 2♥ now, and I will usually force to game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P_Marlowe Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 Hi, 2H, planning to pass 3C. I wont pass, 2NT is certainly an alternative, butI think 2H will help me a little bit more. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the hog Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 No one vul? In that case 2NT is probably an overbid, but I bid it anyway. 2H would be a cue raise, showing these values but an extra club or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cRi cRi Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 2♥ for me . 2nt might be down when 3♣ is cold. 2nt will make my hand receive the lead, something I really dont want if partner has something like Ax. The Q of clubs make 3♣ very playable whatever. I will pass 3♣ . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhm Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Say you passed this 11-count: ♠ATx♥T8xx♦AQ8x♣J8 Pa Pa 1♥ 2♣Pa ??? 2♥, 2NT, Pass, 3♣, what's your choice? 2NT, a stronger invitation than a ♣ raise. A good bridge player will rarely pass 2NT.He will either accept the invitation by bidding above 3♣ or sign off in 3♣, in particular with shortage in ♥If notrump is right it is more likely that it needs to played form this side than from partners.I do not like ubiquitous cue bids when there is a sound alternative.Pass is out opposite a 2 level overcall.
