cherdano Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 ♠A. Partner cannot have club values, enough to double 5♥, not enough to act over 1♠X unless he has spade shortness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 And he doubles because he guessed we were going to guess he has a spade singleton? Sorry, that's too deep for me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Agree with the ♠A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, that's too deep for me :) Would a spade void surprise you? I mean, RHO didn't pass 1♠ x'd but they might be 5-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, that's too deep for me :)He doubles because a singleton in partner's suit is always a good defensive asset, even if we are too dumb to realize it.

menggq Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 From the bidding opps sd hv good trumps and wdnt hv any losers in it.that means pd's DBL must be hoping for ruff since opps hv short in ♣suit so must hv some cards in others ♠/♦ ,pd didnt raise ♠ that's a another evidence to prove pd's short ♠.Cash ♠A and a smallest one to give the signal return ♣ and ruff ♠ again.it must be 5X-2. Am i right?By the way i wd like to say 3♣ was overbid,i wd pass 2♥.2♥ DBL is not a good idea for me either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
