Pleased with the answers, since I was South, conceding -800.The full hand: [hv=pc=n&s=sahkqt753da64cq93&w=skj2hj964dqt92c75&n=sq976h2d8753ct642&e=st8543ha8dkjcakj8&d=e&v=n&b=2&a=1s2h2sppdp2ndpprp3hdppp]399|300[/hv] Perhaps our scrambling ensured that they would collect.Just one of those things? Or maybe we all have something to learn. Stiff ♠A is a big negative♠6 ♥KQT753 ♦A64 ♣AQ9 is auto to double, though might have fared the same.

Fluffy Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I had almost exactly north's hand on the same sequence I instad bid 3♥ with confidence and got away with -300 undoubled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahydra Posted November 21, 2012 Report Share Posted November 21, 2012 Can I ask why X rather than 3H? X for me would imply a minor suit, since we're asking partner to pick a suit. Here we don't have one and our hearts are good enough to rebid. ahydra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here we don't have one and our hearts are good enough to rebid. ahydraPartner can have a 5- or 6-card minor, and he can have a singleton heart. Double covers both 15(43) and 1633 shapes. With a 5-card minor partner bids it; to find a 4-4 fit he bids 2NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will mention it to my one partner with whom I play scrambling 2NT :) Recently he has been away, so I've been playing a lot more basic stuff including Strong Twos. ahydra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
