peachy Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Big *No* at IMPs for sure. Not even matchpoints although it is tempting to those who just can't bear to have them play at 2H. But, but they have not shown a fit, they may have more values and stopped low because of misfit, and my partner is likely to hold too many hearts for us to comfortably (profitably I should say) declare and the dreaded outcome is -500 or worse, opposite their non-making partscore.

whereagles Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 If I can trust opps to be bidding seriously, dbl. Else pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtK78 Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Clear no at IMPs. At Matchpoints I would balance, even though it is very dangerous. I just don't want my opps playing at the 2 level. Besides, sometimes partner has hearts and my double will transform our +100 into +200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 1. Partner passed over 1 Heart?2. We are red?3. They have a misfit?4.We play imps? These are mine questions. What was yours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siegmund Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 If you wanted to bid the time to do it was on the first round. Now that they know they have a misfit, don't shoot yourself in the foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanp Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 I don't think it is as clear as many suggest. Both red is very bad for doubling, but our shape is perfect. Against weaker opponents I would often double if their auction was smooth, and pass if one of the opponents thought before bidding or passing 2H.

I agree with the posters that it might be dangerous to enter here but i didn't think it was so clear. Would anyone act as North btw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Will pay off if the opps balance or ever get into this auction and win the part-score battle. Content that they found the one time it worked, and more confident in our chances to win the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 The shape and strength are fine for double but I just hate the diamond holding so much for both offense and defense and I pass. I wouldn't double at any form of scoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Would anyone act as North btw? Perhaps dbl 1st round if I feel lucky, but certainly no action at 2nd round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
