BillPatch Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Bid 2♣. Bid game if partner shows 3 card limit raise or bids 2NT. Pass 2♦, 2♥ or 3♣ rebids. Over the unusual 2S, bid NT game. With 3.5 QT this is quitean excellent minimum 4=5=2=2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 2♣ is kosher. Of course pass could work. What you certainly must not do is bidding 2♥. Maybe if the heart suit had had four honors.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Bid 2C. You cannot pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 What The Hog said. I can have a fair 13 count for a forcing 1NT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Hi, Not answering the question, just adding some question to answer, which may in the end result in a answer to theoriginal question. #1 what hands can be part of the forcing 1NT, espesially the way, the robots play the forcing NT. #2 what is the scoring, IMP / MP? #2.1 would you accept a 2NT rebid and raise to 3NT?#2.2 would you accept a 3H rebid an raise 3H to 4H? For game to be good, you need a max. with partner, youare likely to make 1NT, but may have trouble making 2H in the 5-2 fit. #3 Are you afraid, that the reopen the bidding, if youcontinue bidding? With kind regardsMarlowe PS: I dont have lots of experience playing against GIB,JLOGIC has, his answer to #1 may have been solely based on his experience, what 1NT really means.Of course he also likey to play semiforcing NT, if I rememberhis posts, which may also part of the reasons he voted the wayhe has. PSS: Depending on the real intention of the question, it mayhave been better, to put this question into the robots part ofthe forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can have a fair 13 count for a forcing 1NT Assuming robot system means you are playing with a robot on BBO then it doesn't matter since it will never have a GF hand for 1N. Admittedly it is possible that 2 people chose to play the robot system but I was basing my answer off of the idea that partner was a gib.

ArtK78 Posted November 11, 2013 Report Share Posted November 11, 2013 Assuming robot system means you are playing with a robot on BBO then it doesn't matter since it will never have a GF hand for 1N. Admittedly it is possible that 2 people chose to play the robot system but I was basing my answer off of the idea that partner was a gib.Yes, but the Robot will often have a 3 card limit raise of hearts, and hearts may play MUCH better on this hand than notrump. But I can see why you might want to pass 1NT, even though it is "technically" forcing. Personally, I would bid 2♣ on this hand, and that is what I would do with any live partner unless 1NT was not 100% forcing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
