effervesce Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Pass. Despite the decent shape and two aces, the hand isn't that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFA Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 4♥. Unproblematic raise. This is a nice dummy for hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Yep, probably should give up on slam. Seriously, though we were fortunate already to have 2D available, and are comfortable with the previous auction. No one asked the NT range, but I don't think it matters on this hand. At this vul, we would have o/c'd 2D against any. 4H is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted April 3, 2010 Report Share Posted April 3, 2010 Partner was fully expecting to play (though not necessarily make) 3♥ opposite this hand with the hearts and clubs reversed, and that doesn't even count that we have 2 aces. I bid game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted April 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 4♥ was right. QJxKQTxxxKxxx or something similar. opener had AK tight of ♠ so no ruff. this was from the Nordic Juniors, only 2 of 20 tables played 4♥ (of course it's hard to get there if you have no 2♦ natural available, just saying that you get a good score if you bid 4♥) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcphee Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Although it's pairs I will risk 4H. If this dummy can not produce game I suspect partner might not have been able to bid 3H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
