Valardent Posted December 27, 2010 Report Share Posted December 27, 2010 Partner could have bid 3♣ on 1♥ showing ♠+♦ regardless of strength (at least equivalent of an opening hand) 2♠ : shows ♥fit, invite or better dbl : ♠ feature (A,K or Q) rdbl : alerted as the Ace 5♣: 1 Ace out of 5 [hv=pc=n&s=sq76h43d5cjt97543&d=s&v=b&b=7&a=p1h1s2sdr4d4np5c5d6h]133|200[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Pass, because my holdings in partner's suits don't suggest bidding, and defensive values don't suggest doubling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 We have more spades than expected but that's all, with some luck the ace missing is ♦A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfa1010 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 DBL. I try the lightner (they bid a voluntary slam so it is lightner). Can't make dull bids every time.Partner will be confused when I follow to the diamond, but hopefully he continues the suit whatever red ace he has.

mfa1010 Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Btw I think that double of 2♠ is better played as a spade raise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted December 28, 2010 Report Share Posted December 28, 2010 Can I trust partner to have his bids? If so, I expect some weakish wierd 66 or 75 and would save in 6♠. If I can't, pass is 110% obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLOGIC Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I'm sure I would have passed and awaited partners DA lead, it is very likely he has it since the opps did not try for a grand (so they're off 1 keycard) and we know they have the SA. MFAs double is pretty sexy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valardent Posted December 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 This was it : [hv=pc=n&s=sq76h43d5cjt97543&w=sa4hqj875d987ckq2&n=skj9832hdaj432c86&e=st5hakt962dkqt6ca&d=s&v=b&b=7&a=p1h1s2sdr4d4np5c5d6hppp]399|300[/hv] a dbl would have help p to find the ♦ lead & continuation to set it.

JLOGIC Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 I don't think partner needs any help when he has that hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
