just your usual 8-5


gerry

Recommended Posts

my plan would be to bid 2 and go slowly trying to find out if partner makes a forward move wich suggests he has got A such as bidding 3NT on his own or something.

 

But since he is unable to coperate and bids 2 over 2 and 3 over 2, and opponent's ain't bidding their 9+ card fit again, this all smells that he is void or singleton in clubs.

 

I though I'd just blast 6 but upon thinking more.. if he has 4 spades and 6 diamonds 6 is gonna be a poor spot. I'd bid 3 again and if nothing good happens, bid 5 next and give up.

Pd opens 1S and you respond 6C over this? Is pd forbidden from having the A of C and the Q of hearts for his 1S opening bid? Or have the 6C bidders misread the problem and thought the opps open 1S?

 

I think a 2C response is obvious if you want to find out a bit more about the hand.

Just do whatever you like. It's an 8-5 hand, the point of 8-5 hands is to have fun, it is difficult to make rules and systems and rational choices when it comes to them.

Whats the plan stan...

 

pd will bid and again if you go slowly,

Well if partner has either the Q or A you rate to make 6 essentially 100% of the time depends on bringing the suit with only 1 loser max if partner has the A. Since this is roughly 55% a case for a direct 6 exists
