inquiry Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 I'm getting really curious what the bid really meant... Can we get some full hands plz? :D The hand and the sad tale of the result of this hand has been posted.. see... this pclayton post Of course, I would probalby not bother to show you this link to what the 4♥ bidder actually held if it wasn't close to card-for-card what I predicted... :-) Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted September 1, 2004 Report Share Posted September 1, 2004 the rubens hand is interesting, but note when it was published.. nowadays i think most would take a bid at the 4 level (after a major suit fit is found) as 1st or 2nd round control, with or w/out a suit i guess it depends on p'ship agreement and on whether or not you're in a game forcing auction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
