tolvyrj Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Bidding goes: 1S from left- prd bids 2D- RHO bids 2 S and u pass with S xxx, H A10xx, D Q9, C 10xxx. LHO passes and prd bids 2Nt. Parameters r Dbl from prd would have been T/O or strong hand any shape, 1Nt would have been 15-18 balanced and Michaels would have been split range either weak or strong but not intermediate. What does prd have and what shld i do now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Molyb Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Hold on, I need to grab my internet speak to english translator.Tolvyrj wrote:Bidding goes (1S)-2D-(2S) to you and you pass with ♠ xxx ♥ A10xx ♦ Q9 ♣ 10xxx. LHO passes and partner bids 2NT. Agreements are that double from partner are takeout or a strong hand with any shape. We also play normal 1NT overcalls and Michaels cuebids. What does partner have and what should I do now? If partner had 15-18 balanced with 5 diamonds would he still bid 1NT?He's probably semi-balanced with two doubletons and 5 diamonds in the 15-18 NT range. Something like:♠Ax ♥ Qxxx ♦AKxxx ♣Kx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloa513 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Strong minor suited x xx ♦Akxxxx ♣Akxx or something like that - I don't think bidding balanced strong at that point is sensible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Yep...delay unusual....good playing hand with 6-4 in minors. First I would wait for RHO's call. If it is a pass or double, I bid 3 (only) clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
