P_Marlowe Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 This is purely a tactical decsison, and all about knowing your opponents. Given we are red, they are green, they wont have lots of trouble bidding 5H over 4S.But if you know them, and know, that they hardly ever go to the 5 level,4S is quite a good option. The downside, if they do it, you will not be able to show your 2nd suit,and you would have wished, that you started with a 2-suited overcall. And even 1S may work well. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 I have seen some very successful 4 ♠ bid with hands like this. But I would start with 2 ♥, usually followed by spade bids later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 2♥ followed by rebidding ♠s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilKing Posted July 24, 2013 Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Snap 4♠ for me. The hand is not good enough to dog it, imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjbrr Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 2H seems really terrible to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandakh Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 At the N/B level, 3♠ followed by 4♠ over their 4♥ has decent chances of getting a top. Not certain of course but probably good enough to try. Against better opps (or opps who rate you as adv+) the direct blast is probably better. The hand looks like more of a problem of tactics and psychology than pure bidding theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
