Free Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 All those Jacks don't improve the hand. West has an easy pass imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAce Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Nobody bids 4♥ over 3♠ thinking that he will make it without any help from his pd. He was already guessing/hoping what we hold. If we are making a move with this over 4♥, that shows we actually deserved to defend 3♠, untill we discover there are other options between defending 3♠ uncontested and playing 6♥.

Phil Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 If I held the West hand, I would be hopeful but not positive this was an adequate dummy for 4♥. The ♠KJ are particularly terrible. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess the OP's partner held the 1=6=3=3 hand and they got too high when the OP got excited and made a slam try. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tolvyrj Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 If prd has right maximum for his bid, 6 ♥ would be an excellent contract...sadly my prds tend to have wrong minimum :unsure: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxx Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 If prd has right maximum for his bid, 6 ♥ would be an excellent contract...sadly my prds tend to have wrong minimum :unsure: Point of the thread. At another time in another place, East would have ♠Axx ♥KQ8xxx ♦A10x ♣x, and those three jacks would be the Three Musketeers of the hand. But this is exactly why people preempt. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 If I held the West hand, I would be hopeful but not positive this was an adequate dummy for 4♥. The ♠KJ are particularly terrible. In an attempt to make your good case stronger you go so over the top that you end up writing nonsense. This is a good dummy and you are more likely to miss a slam than to go down in 4. The KJ doubleton behind the preemptor is not terrible at all. Having said that, I agree that it is an easy pass, which is perhaps what Phil meant to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
