Hello, this is the twenty-fifth thread in the big poll. Please provide the most probable result after East opens 1 and you either

 

a) pass

b) double

c) bid 2.

 

Please do a cross imp result like:

 

a-b:

a-c:

b-c:

 

(a-c means the imps a wins over c)

 

Thanks :) Please try to do all 30 hands also :)

West will raise to 2 regardless of south's action, and east will bid 4. Assuming south finds a fairly normal diamond lead, this relies on guessing the spade suit. I suspect that if south does not pass, east should always get this right by playing the heart bidder/takeout doubler for the shorter spades (and the ace). If south passes it seems quite possible to go wrong. I'll go with:

 

a: 50% of -420, 50% of +50.

b, c: -420

 

a-b = 5 IMPs (50% of award for 470)

a-c = 5 IMPs (50% of award for 470)

b-c = 0 IMPs

a: (1S) pass (1NT) pass; (2C) pass (2S) pass;??

    With a 4-3-3-3 10 loser minimum hand, I'd bid 1NT with West hand. I'd expect East to make a further move after 2S (more probable than passing) and E/W reach 4S.

 

Otherwise I agree with awm

 

a-b = 5 IMPs (50% of award for 470)

a-c = 5 IMPs (50% of award for 470)

b-c = 0 IMPs

a. 1 p 1NT p

2 p 2 p

3 p 3 ppp

I think they get spades wrong

-140

b. 1 X 2 (bad raise) ppp

Now they get spades right

-170

c. 1 2 2

Blech but I think west has to raise. Now they get to 4 and get spades right

-420

 

a-b: +1

a-c: +7

b-c: +6
