mr1303 Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I wait. If partner wants to double 2S I'm happy. This is a sound opening with good defensive potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSClyde Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 2♦ should show diamonds and hearts if partner is on his toes about subtle inferences.Bidding 2♦ immediately after a redouble should show a weak opening hand, however, opposite a passed partner, you should just open 2♦ if your hand has no interest in game opposite the best hand partner could hold, so the only reason to open at the 1 level must be having another spot to play: it must be hearts. Subtle, but I've had partner's who could get that right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
