whereagles Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 2♠ doesn't show extras to me. Just a normal min (up to a bad 15 or so) and 6 cards. I'm doubling, on grounds that they're not going to make an overtrick and could easily go down 500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOGIC Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 I am going to guess that they play transfers over 1S X and that's why it was passed (very common agreement here). Seems like a trap but I'd rip this. RHO was under pressure and had no game try (enter gnasher to tell us why 2N should be a game try :P). He probably gambled on his partner having a little something in order to make a vul game. For instance, wouldn't we all bid 4H on a 1444 18 count on this auction? We have that hand destroyed.

We have that hand destroyed. does that translate into pass&defend or X. Having seen some of the opening calls being foisted on readers of BBO Fora I am more inclined for the former.
