broze Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Erm, yes. I should say that with 3 HCP and four rubbish spades West should take the normal action and pass. If partner only needed a king from you, he would bid game himself. Or with some GF hand that would be suited to two different games he could bid 4♦. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 yes seems pass of 4c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 4C is fine unless the defense shifts immediately to a heart at trick two. We can avoid game on the given auction, thanks to South's 3D bid. Not sure we can avoid game after the appropriate 4D bid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 West mistook the 4♣ bid for 4♦ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Of course should never bid 4S here, he misunderstood the auction I think. I think that east would have done better to double a second time I think. 4C bypasses both 3DX and 3NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandakh Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Any love for a 3♦ overcall from East instead of the double? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
