whereagles Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 I would open, but one can probably afford to pass. With this nice hand and the majors, it should be no problem to butt-in later at a safe level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 I miscounted my points yesterday and passed as dealer with 14. Worked out quite well actually. Musta been a good decision. Getting some mileage out of this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Seems like a clear opening bid. 4 controls LTC of 6 No rebid problems Both majors Passing is just wrong, imo. Could it work out badly? Of course. So what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Statto Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Would anyone's decision be affected by vulnerability and scoring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cthulhu D Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Amusingly this came up at the club last night, I opened a somewhat less sound S: -- H: KQxxx D: K9xxx C: QTx on the basis that I'd never get in if I didn't - which was right as it came back around to me at 3S. Worth all the matchpoints because the opponents took a phantom save in 5S (5H was off one on best defence, though you needed to be lucky). There are more reasons to open vul vs NV imho, with a misfit partner will stop low (probably after 1S - 1NT; 2H) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
