Hello, this is the twenty-eighth 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 :)

After a pass 1S might be passed out. After a double north will bid 2C and east could bid 2D. That might end the auction.

a: 1♠-P-1N-P-3♦-All pass. Club queen lead to king, top spade won by south and a diamond to declarer's jack. Top spade, spade ruffed in dummy. Heart to queen and ace, club to ace, diamond to declarer's ace. Top diamond, spade lost to north. Club to dummy's ten. Heart king cashed, heart ruffed, spade ruffed by south, but south can take only one more trick before conceding to dummy's hearts. N/S take two spades, two hearts, one club, and a diamond for -2 and +100.

b: 1♠-X-P-2♣-2♦-All pass. Same play/defense as above, +50.

c: 1♠-2♥-P-P-X-All pass. On good defense it seems like south has only one spade, two hearts, and a club, although a fifth trick seems fairly likely to appear. -800.

 

a-b = 2 IMPs (50)

a-c = 14 IMPs (900)

b-c = 13 IMPs (850)

 

Again, I continue my trend of responding on west hands that some might pass. Passing 1♠ would've worked out better this time.

I am not sure if I would stay in 2♥X as west, we are non vul and 3♣ might be an alternative. I think I would pass but don't expect everyone to do so.

 

 

A: 1♠ -80

B: 2♠ +50

C: 2♥X -800

 

A-B = -4 IMPs

A-C = 12 IMPs

B-C = 13 IMPs

[Codo]

A 1 ♠ all pass -110

B 1♠ X pass 2♣ 2♦ pass pass -1 +50 I had lead a high heart and continued the suit. Declarer will discard a club and play a spade up. I would play a club to the ace and partner a trump, won. King of spade, spade ruffed with the ten, heart, partner discards a spade, shoudl sum up to -1.

+50

C 1♠ 2♥ p p X all pass - 500 I doubt that the defence can get all the tricks. They lead a spade, I win and lead a diamond. Say that East wins and returns a heart to cut down my diamond ruff. I win and play a high diamond. He wins and does what? -800 can be done, but I guess, I would fail. :)

 

AB -160 -4

AC +390 +9

BC +550 +11

a: agree with awm on biddding. I go with his analysis and result of N/S +100

b: agree with awm; +50 to N/S

c: agree with awm; -800 to N/S

 

a-b = 2 IMPs (+50) to N/S

a-c = 14 IMPs (+900) to N/S

b-c = 13 IMPs (+850) to N/S

a. 1♠ ppp

Diamond lead to jack. There are 7 losers but south has to give up a trick eventually I think.

-80

b. 1♠ X p 2♣

2♦ ppp

South leads the queen of clubs. I see 5 losers only.

-90

c. 1♠ 2♥ p p

X ppp

-800

 

a-b: 0

a-c: +12

b-c: +12

Jack playing 2001 BWS on championship setting says:

 

a 1se+1 -110

b 2de-1 50

c 3se-1 50

 

a-b -4

a-c -4

b-c 0
