OleBerg Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 6♥ seems to be too wild a gamble. Partner had available 4NT T/O followed by 5♥ to show a good 5♥.Actually, being a passed hand, wouldnt also 5♣ and 5♦ show heart support?

benlessard Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 I would bid 4C NLM or double with east hand but 4H is forced if partner frequently pass 3 level take-out X. After 4S i slighty prefer X to 5H. Partner is probably S void and will pull with super shape or they are in 7-2 FIT. 6H is terrible, partner could have bid 5m en passant to show a good 5H raise.

Yes I agree (although I'm generally cautious of that principle, since I often hold a suit worth showing later but not adequate for a preempt. Some of us do have standards, Ole :)). 5m would not be a slam try as such, as I see it, more like a raise with a good suit on the side.

billw55 Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 How about 4♠ directly over 3♠? To me that shows a strong hand with 5-5 in hearts and a minor, which sounds accurate for this hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
