pooltuna Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 :) Long IMP match against good opponents.[hv=d=n&v=b&s=sq94haj10962dk62c4]133|100|Scoring: IMP1♦-P-1♥-P4♥-P-???[/hv] UR bid. Well 5♣ looks like the straight forward control showing bid that indicates you have a spade control problem [since you bypassed it] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aguahombre Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Charlie Tuna seems right. Or maybe this is one of those hands where we don't want a bid with good taste, but rather one that ends up tasting good. Had this discussion on a string about a week ago, where just asking for key cards and hoping not to give much info is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdeegan Posted September 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 :rolleyes: A familiar hand. I'm trying to get a reading on what serious bridge players do in this situation. Personally, I think the hand is a little too good to pass, but should I ask with RKC and two quick spade losers (potentially) or tell with a Q bid? And, if so, whidh one?

ONEferBRID Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Looks strangely familiar...Yes it does..... so based on the "Tannah Hirsch recommendation", I show the double fit with includes the Diam K, although Ken would rather it be the K Q x . 5D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codo Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 Maybe we shoud start to play denial cuebids opposite monster hands (like the one partner has). Until we do, I try a simple 4 NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
