Two others got way too high, in 4♥ and 5♥. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasetb Posted August 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Talk about two more stinkers. On this hand, NOT A SINGLE NORTH GIB (9) made a move over the 2♠ (0-9 HCP, 4+ Spades) bid, despite a great 19 that I count up as pretty much game. 3 West GIBs didn't open 2♦ (???), and the other 3 Souths passed (???) the Double.[hv=pc=n&s=skt842h96dt4ckj76&w=sj6hq42daq7632c32&n=saq97hakjtdk98cq5&e=s53h8753dj5cat984&d=w&v=b&b=4&a=2ddp2sppp]399|300[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasetb Posted August 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 On this hand, why can't I stop in 4 of a minor, especially once partner has limited his hand? Maybe we don't have any game, and I want to stop. I recommend that 3m followed by 4m is to play when the 2♠ bidder is limited to less than 13.
