trevahound Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 3♠ for me, then 4♦ over 3nt or 4♣. Pass 4♥. Going slamming if partner's rebid is 4♠ or higher, of course. Brian Zaugg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSGibson Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 I'm bidding 3♠ like Brian. Over 3N, I'm continuing with 4♦. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrothgar Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 [hv=pc=n&s=sha873dkqt532c842&d=e&v=0&b=14&a=pp2sdp?]133|200[/hv] I know, I know, many of you wouldn't be in this position but here we are. I have a spade void and RHO wasn't able to raise the opening. Partner almost assuredly has a balanced hand, a spade stack, and is too strong for a NT overcall.There's probably going to be some wasted values in spades. I'm going to bid a prosaic 6♦I'll apologize if we have a grand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to bid a prosaic 6♦I'll apologize if we have a grand. I'd be more worried about Axxx, KQJx, A, KQxx where playing in the right suit is important. Can't really help more as no way can I have a hand that good and not have opened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akwoo Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 MPs: 3♠; IMPs: 4♦ I wouldn't depend on the opponents' bidding at a Tuesday regional pairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted August 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 If you bid 3♠, partner bids 4♣ and 4♥ over 4♦ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyman Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 So I was supposed to bid 6C, which rolls in style, and 6D is going down? I've seen this hand before...http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akwoo Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Over 4♥, I want a table read of the opponents, maybe including a quick perusal of the convention card to get a sense of sophistication level. Does East look like someone who might not make a spade raise he or she should be making? If yes, we are ahead of the everyone else based on that, and I take the sure plus and pass. If no, it depends on the state of the game. I bid 4♠ if I'm swinging and pass if I'm willing to take 40% on one board to avoid a 0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilKing Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 If you bid 3♠, partner bids 4♣ and 4♥ over 4♦ 4♠ seems pretty clear now (or 4NT to show a spade cue if playing your beloved kickback). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
