the hog Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 What do I think of the bidding? East bidding was silly He could easily have a Spade and a C to lose.. South's double was ridiculous. Is south a beginner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codo Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I really liked nearly everything what was made during the biding at the table. It was so full of harmony and so small in bridge understanding. 1. There is a borderline to open 1 in a suit. No matter where it is, it is well below this hand.2. To reopen with 4 spades and no hearts is asking for trouble. 3. To double with no tricks is silly.4. Not to redouble with the great fit, an ace and short spades is silly.

PhilKing Posted December 8, 2012 Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 I quite like South's pass over 1♠, although some might think it unimaginative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelandakh Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Hello and welcome to the forums eternalme. In the OP auction, I would duplicate one of the first seven calls, although I can see arguments for making a different call at every turn. Also, before anyone else gets too rude about the Double, I will point out that the OP was sitting South for this hand. Looking over the BBO record it does look like the Novice/Beginner forum might be a good place for some friendly advice. Also, I can recommend the BIL for learning what the different bids mean. On a different tack, this seems like a perfect hand for Ben's system: 2NT = club preempt or strong 2-suiter with hearts and not clubs... - 3♣4♠ = hearts and spades, 2 loser, need club... - 6♥ would be the auction I think. I am sure Ben will correct me if I misread the notes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billw55 Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Agree that all four players made bad calls. 1. There is a borderline to open 1 in a suit. No matter where it is, it is well below this hand.I can't tell if you are talking about north or east. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
