(at the other table, my hand started with multi 2D .. the auction was 2d - p - 2h - 3dp 3h - x - xxp 3N How should the auction go?

nigel_k Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hard to fault South. From North's point of view, South could have a number of different hands where 3NT is best. But I still think it's a close call and North should maybe prefer 5♦ to 3NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOGIC Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Certainly easy to see what north was thinking. His 3 small hearts look very NTy, the rest of his hand looks good for 5D. I could easily see duplicating this auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 I think that there are more handtypes, where 5 ♦ is superior. But of course, if partner had the other black queen, I would regret my choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
