mtvesuvius Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 3N seems right. I'd rather bid 3N or double than pass... I'd rate it between bad and very bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 3NT looks normal, but pass could easily be right. Pass has got a lot more going for it at matchpoints, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamford Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I don't know whether 3NT or Pass is right, but I would regard double as between very bad and something worse. And I would Pass at matchpoints. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 3NT is a bit risky, but pass also.. it risks missing out on a thin game. Depends on my mood and opps, but normally 3NT. Definitely not dbl because I'm gonna look silly if pard bids 4♠ on something like AJxxxQxxKxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siegmund Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 For me this is maybe half a trick shy of a 3NT bid, and I would consider pass the normal/obvious call, with 3NT as a swingy alternative, and double not on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Pass. You do not have a source of tricks to bid 3NT on this hand. I regard 3NT as totally an out and out gamble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 3NT seems clear enough. I would describe Pass as wrong, rather than bad. With a slightly better hand I would describe Pass as bad. With a slightly worse hand I would think Pass was correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOGIC Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Agree with 655321, obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 3NT is not an extreme gamble, it's just percentages imo. On average partner will have around 8HCP and we know a lot about the distribution and location of honours. If we pass now, chance is big that we'll miss out on a simple game.
