Fluffy Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 double! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfay Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 I'd just pass. Think this is totally normal. If you overcall on POS all the time, though, maybe you owe partner another bid to show that you actually have a legit overcall (yes I saw the vul) :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not very likely we have a spade fit after the negative X and that takes away one of the biggest upside of a double. Sometimes we can defend :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtK78 Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 Pass. For me this is a WTP. I overcalled. I am allowed to hold this hand. And I do not normally overcall on a POS. Even at favorable. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanp Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 Double, I have about ♠AQ extra and I'm off one card from the perfect shape. It's not perfect but at least my heart king seems to be pulling its weight. Another factor in favor of doubling is that we are white with a great suit.

Fluffy Posted May 14, 2010 Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 double! really? meaning/showing what? extras, ideally 3163 but certainly some 5422 and 6322 are possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Double seems fine to me, we have a nice hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted May 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Nothing much happened in this hand. This hand doubled (an American Venice cup player) and the other hand should have passed and they would have got 200 or 500. I think. The other hand pulled to 3C and he went 1 or 2 off. This is all from my memory and it may not be 100% accurate. Partner had QJxx of hearts and JTxxx of clubs and 2 2 but I don't remember with what.
