tolvyrj Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 With a trump lead 6 ♣ wont be a walk in a park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 With a trump lead 6 ♣ wont be a walk in a park.Without a trump lead, 6♣ is cold. With a trump lead, it is no worse than on a simple heart finesse. (Setting up a diamond might be a better probability.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tolvyrj Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 Setting up ♦ must be better probapility after they have lead trump. Now all u have to do is hope that u can set the ♦ and still be able to draw the trumps, cause u maybe short of them when (if) the ♦ r strong.

gnasher Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 After a club lead, suppose that you play diamond ruff, ♥A, heart ruff, diamond ruff, heart ruff, diamond ruff. You're down to two trumps in East and none in West, the defenders still have two trumps, the diamonds aren't set up yet, and you're in the wrong hand. I'd take the heart finesse and then crossruff.

Now all u have to do is hope that u can set the ♦ and still be able to draw the trumps, cause u maybe short of them when (if) the ♦ r strong. The probability of being able to set up ♦s is almost zero. Rainer Herrmann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahydra Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 On the auction given I think East should have bid 4NT (blackwood) over 4C. I don't really agree with the X - for me that would show a strong NT without a stop in spades, though no doubt this pair plays it differently - and would have bid 4C natural (since X doesn't really show a suit). East bids 4D, West 4H and East 4NT, not underestimating his 6-5 hand now he knows of a maximum opener + 4-card clubs opposite. Having said that, West might have punted 6C over 5C in the OP's auction given his 3-loser hand, but I'm not going to blame him for passing. ahydra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 i like the x of 2s a far sighted bid knowing that pwould almost never pass it for penalty because theyare extremely likely to have at least ten cards in minors(0/1 spade and less than 2 hearts). This keeps the bidding LOW and gives W a chance to learn more about E hand. 3d is just too weak a 3d call would be closer to x xx QJxxxx QJxx and unwillingness to play 2s xwith a minimum and dia preference. Your actualhand is at least 2 tricks above minimum and deservesmore repsect in the bidding. bid 4s bypassing 3s (and thus 3n) has to be because ofextreme distribution and weakish asking p to pick best minor. Once 4s hits the table W should have zero problems bidding6c and should not be thinking grand because E bypassed 3sto show a weakish/distributional hand.

dake50 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 What would 1H <1S> 2S Q-bid show? I play that as 5-5 other suits as negX otherwise.That gets slammy rolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whereagles Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Prefer 2♦ + 3♣ with responder's hand, but that's a detail. Contract is fine. From responder's point of view, there can be a lot of wastage so a quiet 5 seems par. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
