pclayton Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 All vulnerable, stratified pairs, pro on left, weak client on right. 1♦ on left, pass by pard, 2♦ (NOT inverted) on right. You try 2♥; 3♦ by the pro, pass, pass....? Arrrgghhh KT9xKQTxxxKxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartA Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 7NT. :P I assume I have all the good cards since you didn't provide them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Nice thread, no hand, no description of the hand, but still asking what I'll bid :P :P As usual, I'll vote for the missing "OTHER" option... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotShot Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Well if we want to support the Pro's lecture, we bid 3♥, so he can tell his client what happens if you bid your hand twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 Pass and let the pro play, they aren't as good as they think, and it is a good chance to demostrate it :-P, double would be nice if it would be taken as penalty :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 We REALLY need a hand before we can comment..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 FWIW I rarely let them play on auctions like this though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inquiry Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 This is a nice study.... it just goes to show what happens at most tables... people bid without really paying attention to what they hold... why just todyay my partner bid... well... I guess I should say, but is clear he never looked at his hand. How is this any different? Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 3H, clearcut. (this was posted before the hand showed up, having seen the hand I would pass). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 i'd pass.. you've heard from partner twice... if he was interested in doubling diamonds, he had his chance... he also had a chance to bid 3h... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted February 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Darnit; wish I'd post the original hand first. I really wanted an honest evaluation of the hand, since it was the subject of the first Appeals Committee I've ever sat on. :ph34r: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I would pass when vul. DK is a big warning sign. That being said, over a slow pass of 3D I think bidding would be grossly unethical. Certainly pass is a logical alternative to a bid, and certainly a hesitation over 3D would demonstrably suggest bidding. If the director ruled to roll the contract back to 3D and the offenders appealed, I would assess an appeal without merit warning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
