dwar0123 Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 You are strong enough to double and then bid again, which shows what you have.Would expect auction to go 1♦ Pass 1♥ XPass 2♣ Pass 3♠pass 4♠ pass passpass 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 IMO things that went wrong are: -Opponents don´t play support double-Your hand fits perfectrly for a game with 22 HCP combined with only 8 trumps. I wouldn´t go mad trhinking on hands like this, even when you double fist there is no guarantee you will find this game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrax Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Why 3♠ after 2♣? What does it convey that 2♠ doesn't? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 You don't need to find pard with much other than K♠ third to have play for game. I'd X then rebid 2♠ (jump rebidding 3♠ needs even more). I don't hate your simple o/c and if PD had enough to stretch to a raise in comp or if opps compete and you can bid ♠ again, it could work out. As it is, don't fret too much. You missed a perfect fit 22 HCP game with 8 trumps. Still I prefer X then 2♠ but what if the bidding comes back to you at the 3 level and pard is broke...could get dicey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 Why 3♠ after 2♣? What does it convey that 2♠ doesn't?For me X then 3♠ would show just about opening 2♣ strength and clearly this isn't that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordontd Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 (jump rebidding 3♠ needs even more). More importantly, it needs a better suit than this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahydra Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Agree - South needs to X then bid 2S. Most people play this as F1 (but not GF). North's hand isn't great, but his singleton H and Kxx spades should be enough to convince him to bid 4S over that. If he only bids 3S, how many people raise to 4 with South? I would. ahydra 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 I would bid 2♠ with the N hand, but then my overcalls are sounder than most and both 2♦ and 2♥ would be better raises so it doesn't show much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
