Hanoi5 Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 No: Picking the 2♥ card in the bidding box and then saying 'oops!' and then bringing the 3♥ card IS natural. Anyway, 3♥ though this could get awkward when he bids 3NT (or 3♠). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogerclee Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 3♦ let's see what's partner's shape. How are you going to determine this based on partner's response to 3D? As far as I can tell, with 4315, 4216, 3217, etc. he can bid either 3H or 3N depending on his hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlson Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 What's wrong with 2n if you want to find out more from partner? I think I would just bid 3n though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 you are right roger, it will be hard to suggest hearts to partner later, maybe 3♦ is not so bright. Still it focuses on out most likelly fit, so not a bad idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dake50 Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Black 2-suiter for partner. I can say 3 D D-values useful/not, then 3N =H-stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 If you bid 2NT partner bids 3D. In that case I bid 2NT, and now I bid 4♦. My plan is to bid RKCB on the next round. (4NT directly over 3♦ would be quantitative.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I bid 3♥, if he bids 3NT I then bid 4♦. You can't even say 3♥ is needed as artificial here since you could always preference back to 3♣ on a doubleton if needed (ok you could be 3451 with no heart stopper, but...)
