BunnyGo Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 i don't think the decision is obvious. I would personally pass. I'd consider a double--both on the principle that 2NT-P-P-? can be doubled on principle, and that it'd get partner off to a heart lead and if declarer is trapped in his hand with a dead dummy, I might have enough entries to cash out my hearts. That said, I'd pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 3♥ is obviously out and double would be interesting if it was "lead your shortest major CHO!", but well I don't know if that's the case. So pass and enjoy the suffering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgr Posted November 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 [hv=pc=n&s=sq64hq987643dk8c7&w=skt2hajdaj653cak3&n=saj953hk5dq4ct964&e=s87ht2dt972cqj852&d=w&v=0&b=8&a=2nppp]399|300|MP's[/hv]I passed, but wondered afterwards if it wasn't better to bid. We have a 7c♥ and points are probably 20-20.2NT made +2 when partner did lead a ♣ for a score of 6/14. 3♥ gets 100%.(This comes from a Jack Tournament) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Unfortunately CHO cannot always lead his short major. 6 of 14 is fine. Mama Papa might do better, though, by leading longest suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfay Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 I think I'd balance. Double is not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
