gnasher Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 4♣ if that's natural, otherwise 5♣. I lack the imagination for anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 If 4♣ is conventional I try 3NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAce Posted April 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 No, 4♣ is natural for us, but even if it wasnt, i am not so thrilled with my T8x ♠ for 3 NT, to be honest Helen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOGIC Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 4C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 Hi, I am not passing. If 4C is an option, I am bidding this, if not, sincewe agreed to play Non Leaping Michaels, 5C it is. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
menggq Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 DBL for me.i dont want to lose any opportunities:we may hv 3N or 4H or 5C or penalty etc.what's the beginning? DBL for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Since it's natural, I'd bid 4♣. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 I'm going to pass this. 5♣ seems a long shot if pard can't find a balancing bid and for once I don't have the nerve to overcall 3NT. If pard happens to come up with a bid over 3♣, I'm in good shape: - Over dbl I might bid 4♠ or 5♣. - Over 3♦ I have an easy 3♠.- Over 3♥ I can either raise or bid 3♠ on the way to game. If he passes I might miss a few games, but I'm willing to take that risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcphee Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 3N could easily be a winner even if the 3S bidder holds AK to 7 and many time you find your RHO with stiff S honor. Tidy contract facing Jx S and the AD perhaps KH. Most of my partners have fail to recognize Jx as a stop so 3N gets consideration. Is 4C so fabulous looking? Seems to me we have only 3 choices, pass 3N and 4C. 5C could go down when 3N is making. Good choice Helene and if that partner fails to supply the right dummy lets hope they can appreciate we got GUTS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTjoMS Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Pass. 5♣ needs a lot from partner, if we have them partner is likely to bid something anyway. Also we don't have high enough ODR to aim to win part-score battle, i think it is obvious that it is more likely that both 3♠ and 4♣ goes down comparing to both making. Besides LHO is in comfortable position to double us (or evalulate his hand better whether to bid 4♠ or not). And.. even if we have game, 3♠ will probably go down more than 1, so we can't talk about 37,5% game bidding.. not even close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 At last there's a hand that I want to bid 4♣ over 3M and feel good about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 RHO opened 3♠. I don't understand this post. Even if RHO had opened 2♠, surely this is a wtp 3♣? Sorry, something came up while I was writting and I got distracted, thinking the opening was in clubs. Still, I maintain that pass is my bid and that if pard acts over 3♠ I'm in good shape.
