Hanoi5 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 White vs Red, teams, you pick up this beauty: ♠K♥932♦AKJ7542♣Q9 However, the dealer on your left opens 1♦, your partner overcalls 1♠ and RHO passes. 1♦-1♠-Pa-??? What would you bid? Say it goes on: 1♦-1♠-Pa-1NTPa-2♣-Pa-??? What should your partner's 2♣ be? What would you bid then and there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vianu2 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 What would you bid? Say it goes on: 1♦-1♠-Pa-1NTPa-2♣-Pa-??? What should your partner's 2♣ be? What would you bid then and there? What can it be ? Partner doesn't take my 1NT too seriously (looking at his void ♦) .What can i do now lol. Is a 7 cards suit good enough to play it as the level 2? I bid 2d. But have no clue if partner will pass.:D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrAce Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I will try 3nt after 1s. Pd did not open Mike, he overcalled your single suit probably he is void/stiff in your best suit which is also LHO's suit. I am really curious how are u planning to make 9 tricks in NT b4 they score 5 tricks even if i give ♦ Q and a fairly good hand to pd? AQJxx xx Qx Jxxx, now this is hell of a 1♠ overcall but if u dont like it we can even exeggerate his hand to AQJxx KQxx Qx xx. I have a feeling he wont have ♦ Q most of the time, which will reduce your trick potential by a lot. I dont even know why we all think our hand must bid something.

vianu2 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I dont even know why we all think our hand must bid something. WowwwwBtw i still have a 7 cards suit and a KING in my partner's suit and i rather prefer to go down -2 on any idiotic contract than lose a cold game if partner overcaled with good cards, Or u are apart of the bidders who X having more than 14 hcps? Is your 1♠ overcal limited to 12-13? And what is the fun of playing 1♠ in 5-1 fit instead of 2♦ in 7-0 fit ? I depreciated enough my hand with the 1NT bidding but lol to credit these 13 hcps with 0 values that's a bit funny. :wub: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonottawa Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I will take the middle road and bid 2N originally. I doubt I'll have many tough decisions after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither trying to convince my pd that we should play 2♦ and it is natural, even if the auction proceeds as u want it to proceed. But you bid and make game, you win 5-6 imps, i dont feel strong about passing but i prefer pass to 3 NT on anyday with this hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
