kgr Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 WalshIf you play Walsh and bid 1M and later bid 2♦ then that would typically show a weak hand with 4cM and longer ♦?[hv=pc=n&s=s5432ha2da2ca5432]133|100[/hv]IMP's:1♣-(Pass)-1♥-(1♠)Pass-(1NT)-2♦-(Pass)??Is Pass 100% clear here?Note: We also play support DBL's, so partner can still be 5-5 or 4-6.Maybe this is all Clear and pass is 100%; would it also be at MP's?

Note if opp had not bid 1s you could play xyz here to show 4h and long d.With all of that said this is a rare auction and playing Walsh it is easy to lose the diamond suit. This is really the only way to show a weak hand with 4h and long d. You can x with a good hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 There is something to be said about still playing XYZ when you can. In that case 2♦ is still seminatural and forcing while opener already denied a 3 card support. The ♣s were AJT98 btw :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the other table they did go down in a higher contract)I didn't know that the deals were the same at all places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
