jdonn Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Double, way more flexible than 4♥ on a hand where we are happy no matter what partner does (as long as he isn't broke!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zheddh Posted November 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Ok, since a dbl is unanimous, what do you do if partner responds 4m? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Ok, since a dbl is unanimous, what do you do if partner responds 4m? I would pass. 4♥ is a stretch looking for a 5-3 fit and if pard doesn't fit hearts this will start getting uncomfortable. Dbl with this pattern is done so we can be 'flexible', but to take another call feels like an overbid and promises at least another King and has the expectation of making 5m opposite an 8 count. . I think if you were planning on bidding 4♥ you should have done so in the 1st place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggieb Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 I think if you were planning on bidding 4♥ you should have done so in the 1st place. Why? If partner bids 3N or passes our double we are very happy to have started with a double! Now that partner didn't, why is it inconsistent to fall back on 4♥? Anyway I agree with passing 4m but think it's close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
