inquiry Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Butler, Both Red: ♠x♥AK98xx♦AJx♣Q9x (2♦*)-2♥-(2♠)-3NT(Pa)-??? 2♦ is Multi. Do you leave your partner to play there or bid 4♥? Why would I ever consider anything other than pass? Partner knows I have hearts, and usually six (or more) of them when bid RED at the two level. I don't have anything to be ashamed of, and he knows the opponents have a spade fit. Surely HE is the one in position to make the decision here. I think even thinking about pulling to 4♥ is crazy enough, to actually do so is unforgivable. Anyone who bids 4♥ over 3NT HERE with this hand doesn't deserve to ever play with a good partner... because the 4♥ bidder doesn't understand that bridge is a partnership game.

Free Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Seems like an easy pass to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Obvious pass. Why did you even post this question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoi5 Posted July 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 I passed, but thought about it before. I asked someone else who also said it was an easy pass, maybe I should have asked about the 3NT bidder... Edit: I mean, I thought about it but passed thinking partner held 4 good spades or something like that. 4 Hearts was a better contract, though.
