Hanoi Comments: "11. East overcalling 1H after North’s opening bid could create a problem for pairs who play 1S as showing 5 cards unless they re-evaluate their hands and start thinking about NT (which is not as easy as it sounds). The bad trump support, the 10 of Hearts and the good 6-card suit should help though and we might find some pairs getting to the top spot. 3NT, 10; 2NT/3S, 7; 4S, 5" [/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrothgar Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Looks to be the wrong hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgoodwinsr Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 AT of hearts and Qx of clubs, both positive declarer-values, suggested to us rebidding 2D rather than 2S. After that, 3NT was easy: responder raised to 3D, and opener converted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 I can't remember our auction but we got to 3NT after 1♦ (1♥) X. I have a new theory going that it's always right to make a negative double holding 5 spades in a bidding contest. It's 2 for 2 in this contest ;) Wait or did we get to 4♠ by north, I can't remember. Maybe it was 4♠ by north which is a little better than by south at least. Yeah I think it was something ridiculous like 1♦ (1♥) X2♦ 2NT3♠ 4♠ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrothgar Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 We had a couple chances to get to 3N on this one I could have opened a weak NT which would have made life easy. I chose to open 1S showing an unbalanced hand with 4+ Diamonds. Free bid 2♦ showing 5+ spades and I rebid 2S showing Hx or xxx in Spades. Free rebid 2N and I put us in Spades since I liked my Aces...

JLOGIC Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 4S by north is definitely better than 4S by south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
