MrAce Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 [hv=pc=n&s=s4ht93dqt852cat82&d=w&v=b&b=4&a=1s2h2s3h]133|200[/hv] IMPS, expert pd with a little experience of playing together. Opponents claim they are experts. Do you approve my 3♥ bid ? Result of the hand really doesnt matter, this is posted to satisfy curiosity about what me and my pd thinks about other people's choices. Thank you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerclee Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 I don't know what else is even worth thinking about. I think 4H is better than pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billw55 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Let me guess, partner made a vulnerable 2-level overcall on a shaky holding, went for a number, then blamed you for a light raise? Anyway, 3♥ looks 100%. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TWO4BRIDGE Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Is this another situation for Good/Bad 2NT! .Then there are two ways to bid 3H. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 while p is counting on me for 7 hcp for the overcall, I ama tiny bit short in that department, This hand contains thesmall possibility of 3 spade ruffs with a decent shot at 2spade ruffs. It is rare indeed to have a hand that exceeedsp expectations by two tricks and a trump fit. At MP I wouldbid 3h but at IMPS 4h. If opps bid 4s and p passes I can X showing 1 defensive trick(4h promising none) and leave the rest up to p. If P made avul lead director they will quickly look for another partneror maybe not bid so much in the future. Another benefit to 4h(vs 3) is the opps are much more likely to misguess p heartdistribution when they are deciding how/if to compete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandakh Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 Is this another situation for Good/Bad 2NT! .Then there are two ways to bid 3H.Using 2NT as a good heart raise makes sense here, but if you were to play that then this hand is probably not good enough. The only possibility I can see for a different call to 3♥ would be X if that showed a [3 card] heart raise without a top honour. I am pretty shocked to see a vote for pass here.

dake50 Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I separate supporting hands with short in their major from other raises.This is in that separate case. I show D-wanted raise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S2000magic Posted January 13, 2012 Report Share Posted January 13, 2012 I'd have bid 3♥ without much thought. Certainly without misgivings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
