the_clown Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 I open 3♠ describes my hand with one bid. I would rather not have the ♣K but well nobody is perfect. Having opened 1♦, I would bid 3♦ in the first case and 4♦ in the second. If I am doing bad I might gamble 3N in the second one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 1♦ opening for me, 3♦ over 2♥- over 3♥ meh... I might try 3NT with singleton heart, but doubleton is awful, 4♦ then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 i would start with 1d gambling 3n weirdly makes it too easy to bid 3nand might cause many slams to be missed. It doeshave the advantage of being preemptive (but to whom) after 1d p 1s 2hI would gamble a 3h bid. after 1d p 1s 3hI would trot out 4d and hopetheir preempt didnt kill us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kgr Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 This were NS hands and the bidding[hv=pc=n&s=s2h32dakqj5432ck2&n=saq98743hq4dcjt43&d=s&v=0&b=11&a=1dp1s2h3dp3sp5ddppp]266|200|MP's[/hv]2♥ was bid at our table by a beginner. He had a weak hand with 7c♥.Lead was ♥A followed by a small ♥ for the K.A 3th ♥ was played and ruffed small and overruffed.5♦ would make if ruffed high because LHO had ♠KJTx and ♣A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 If W doesn't raise on a 3 card suit headed by the Ace, some bells should be ringing imo. Unnecessary ruffing high still works when trumps split 3-2, a fair chance imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
