babalu1997 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 So the tourney starts with the opps bidding 2hyou have aqxxxxakkqxxx you are playing lebensohl, and holding 4 sapdes is quite a reasonable thing to double the second opps bids 4 heart partner now holds 5 diamonds, 3 spades, 4 clubs and one heart and makes the asinine 5 diamond bid i say asinine because this is a partner who can bid a responsive double, we miss 5 clubs game and now we score -1700 doubled this is the first board!!! i dont want to play anymore morale is gone but i guess partner now decides to make Roid Bids in the second board to make up for it we miss 6 diamonds because he insists on playinh 4 hearts opposite my void i have 7 solid diamonds, he has 3 but no, it is a man thing the question is not about bidding but, what can i do to instantly forget the Roid bids and move on? women make roid bids too i suppose i can stop playing with them, but then, better the devil you know than to play with a bbo expert sight unseen i keep thinking if i could do something mechanical, to bury the hand, maybe punch a puppy named partner. i quit playing with one of the roids before, he comes to me tells me he is serious, we can have fun third hand in the game it goes 1diamond by opp- pass-1 sapde by the other opp- 2 clubs by partner----- on an on till the opps bid some game i have some hopeful tenaces, i make a mud lead THE DUMMY HAS THE AKQ of clubs, on which declarer dumps his losers and my tenaces turn to dust well i put him on probation again, still need to get a puppet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spotlight7 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Hi: You pass if partner doubles 4H. Suits are often not breaking well. A double of 4H shows cards. It does not promise club support. I notice that you only had 2 diamonds for your double, so you cannot expect partner to 'promise' club support with his double at a much higher level. If you went for 1,700, suits were not breaking well. If you play with random partners, you should expect a bunch of lemons on bbo. Free partners are often worth exactly what you pay for them. Both men and women make silly bids here. :lol: Regards, Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggwhiz Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 As a bridge teacher, I play in individuals and deduct the card fees from my taxes as professional development. This series of auctions is clearly deductable and a true write off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
