pooltuna Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 All vul, IMPs ♠-♥Q109xxxxxx (for a total 9)♦Kx♣K10 1♦-(2♣)-4♥-(pass)6♥-(6♠)-??? Once upon a time you could pass at this point in the auction to show first round control and double obviously denied it but that seems to have gone by the wayside. If I could pass with confidence I would otherwise 7♥ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 We probably have at least a spade and a club to take against this, so the only decision is whether to invite 7♥ by passing. That would need something like KJx AKx AQJxxxx -. That hand isn't so unlikely, so I'd pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 yes, pass shows first round control but the problem obviously is, which black suit do you stop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 7♥ then break rule (whatever) as I leer over at my LHO and watch as he agonizes over whether or not to sac in 7♠. After he passes he breaks into a cold sweat and finally loses all bodily control. He picks the wrong lead and we chalk up 2140. Pwned for life. By the way, I'm pretty sure LHO is bidding 7♠ anyway.

Fluffy Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 nah LHO didn't bid 7♠ he had ♥K2 after all partner had ♠KJ8♥AJ♦AQ9xx♣Axx 6♠ X just 1100 for -8, 7♥ +13 I wasn't much worried about heart king since I expect it to be onside, but ♥j was troubling me, thank god it was on aprtner's hands. Also the right black ace. Heart ace I though was a must, given that he misses ♦K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whereagles Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 Dbl. In my book 4♥ shows just about what you have, minus the two kings, so it's really a no-brainer to me ahah. Actually... now that I think of this. The hand reminds me of the horrible misfits in the european championship I once played. Gonzalo was there, too :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
