nigel_k Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Double if system permits, otherwise 2♠. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Partner probably has a light overcall, my hand is defensive, and the opponents are in a forcing auction. I pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jlall Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Assuming 2H is forcing, I utilize the green card! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Double. They don't always have 13 opposite 11. I'm not excited by the idea of passing but raising if partner bids 2♠ by himself. That means that we can never play in 2♠. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't told negative freebids, if that's what they are playing I would double too. Otherwise I'm a bit at a loss as to how partner will get to rebid 2♠ if we pass.

Phil Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I will pass. Just because I have a snapdragon double available (I hope) doesn't mean I should break it out. I'm guessing I'll be on lead against 3 or 4 hearts and I like my chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Don't feel strongly between Pass and Double, but I am not really a fan of 2♠. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dake50 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Is S-Kx sufficient support for partner's overcalls? Mine is, so 2S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlall Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 What is the point of bidding? They have lots of points and are in a force lol. We could easily get cracked in 2S or 3D, and in general we just help them sort out the auction by bidding. I don't see any point, game is super unlikely when they have opened and bid a 2/1 in comp and we have no fit and no shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I will pass. Just because I have a snapdragon double available (I hope) doesn't mean I should break it out. I'm guessing I'll be on lead against 3 or 4 hearts and I like my chances. that was my question...whether snapdragon should only be used at the one-level--not whether it should be used on this hand.
