bluecalm Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 What's your/best agreement here ?: 1)2C* - 2H pass pass2N = ?*= 11-14 6+c or 5c-4M 2)1H 2C 2H passpass 2N = ? 3)1S 2C 2H* passpass 2N = ?*=negative free bid Lessons on punctuation are appreciated too. How do I add question mark and a colon to initial statement to make sense of it ? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I will only do #2, since the conditions do not match our system on the other two. (1M) 2C (2M) P(P) 2NT.....2NT by the 2C overcaller is "delay unusual" for us. It shows typically 4-6 in the minors with a decent overcall.

aguahombre Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 In 3rd opps are bidding NFB not you. You overcalled and now you are in balanced seat. Do play limited openings or standard ?Will relook at the 3rd. On the 2nd, I didn't open; I overcalled (unless I couldn't read that one either). O.K. on the 3rd, I overcalled 2C then came in with 2N when the neg free bid came back around. Therefore, it is the same as #2 ---4-6 in the minors.

bluecalm Posted February 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yeah, sry I am stupid.2) and 3) are similar, just different opponents bidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Number one is totally out of my sphere. I haven't played a big club system for 30 years, and don't remember what 2NT would mean as a reopen by the 2C bidder. If I had to guess, it would be the same 4-6 in the minors :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 All of them show 4-6 in the minors. In the second sequence, double would show 3136 or similar, and you'd bid 2♠ with four. Lessons on punctuation are appreciated too. How do I add question mark and a colon to initial statement to make sense of it ? :)I know of no perfect solution to this problem. You could rephrase it so as not to need the colon, eg "What's your best agreement in the sequences below?" or "What's your best agreement in the following sequences?" Or you can break the sentence in half:"In these sequences:[sequences]What's your best agremeent?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandakh Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 How about: "In the following sequences please tell me what your agreements would be and, if different, what you would consider best:-" Anyway, my answer would be that they all show diamonds with longer clubs.

Poky Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 1)3♣ = natural invite3♦ = artificial GF, asking for description 2)2NT= 6♣4♦, decent hand 3)2NT = natural invitational (since 2♥ was 7-11) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
