Trinidad Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Pass may well be best. I can't stand it though and I will bid 3♠. Those who double should be... those who double are... If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Rik 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanoff Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 There was another hand like this a while back, and I thought the consensus was 3♠. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAce Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 [hv=pc=n&e=saqt74hk32d952ca7&d=n&v=e&b=9&a=3d]133|200[/hv] IMPs, strong opponents. Their preempting style is fairly standard I think if that matters. I might give a thought about pass vs a preemptor like myself (but still bid 3 NT), but hell, i am looking at the preempt standards that people have in BBF, 3 NT > any other bid at IMPS imho, despite the non vulnerability. EDIT : Disregard what i wrote, i am seeing our hand as South.

Lord Molyb Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 I voted wrong, meant to vote 3♠ > Pass > X Double is horrific since you're so balanced with a 13 count.I prefer 3♠ because I have the ♠7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGF_Flame Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 I wish I knew why he doubled with this hand. If anyone can explain this please do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycroft Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Minor note: on the hand record, everyone's vul. I don't know if that makes a difference (it certainly didn't to the opener!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
