gszes Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 2h unless the power is spread most of our power is behind most ofthe opps power. The reasonable intermediates and the 7th heartgive me enough comfort to trot out my preempt while I stillcan. If the power is equally spread 2h will probably easily make butis in danger of being missed due to a passed out hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted April 12, 2012 Report Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm not happy bidding, and I am even less happy passing, so 2♥ it is...and I will show a bad hand with a bad suit, if playing a form of Ogust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_clown Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Second seat r/w, 3card ♠ and very weak hand. Unless I have agreed to play very light preempts I would pass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmnka447 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 A clear pass. Not nearly enough for 3 ♥ and I'm playing disciplined weak 2s in 1st and 2nd seat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasioc Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 2♥ and would not have seriously considered any other option. Probably not a great shock that I agree with Mickyb given the number of his bidding rants I've been subjected to. Fwiw I wouldn't open it if I didn't have those heart pips. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr1303 Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 I dislike 2H quite a lot with a 7 card suit. For me it's between 3H and pass, and at these colours I pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your objection to opening 2♥ with a 7 card suit? I realise that people make plenty of awkward bids in attempts to describe their hands as best they can (off shape 1NT and especially 2NT openings, rebids of 3 card suits to establish a gf etc) but, although it's not perfect at all, I didn't really think that this was one of those uncomfortable stretches (although I can see that some other people bidding it do). If your objection is that 2♥ is not a good description of the hand, is pass really a better one? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 Very obvious 2♥ bid. A 3-bid only if the singleton were spades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOGIC Posted April 14, 2012 Report Share Posted April 14, 2012 Yeah 2H is standard to me. What's wrong with having a 7 card suit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
