shnk Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 IMPS white-white[hv=pc=n&s=st3hk92dqj6caj954&n=s7haq763dat9842c2&d=n&v=0&b=1&a=1hp1n2sd4s]266|200[/hv]System is 2/1 with 100% forcing 1NT. I'm interested in every bid here:North's opening? We generally do not play very light openings.South's forcing 1NT intending on making a 3-card limit raise? (I think standard given system)North's double intending to convert a club bid to diamonds? (No idea about this. It seemed better than passing.)EW are known to preempt agressively. Should south continue? After a pass or double from south, should north act? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAce Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Opening is fine. For some if us including me it's auto. Forcing nt is obvious to show 3 card limit raise. I wouldn't make a gf bid despite the side 5 card suit. Double is the only bid that misses me by a mile. There are other toys to show Dias and a weak hand but I would just bud 3 dia and I do not play this showing a big hand.As south now, seeing pd doubled 2 spade I would probably take you way too high thinking you have spade shortness and we have double fit and lots of muscle.

SteveMoe Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 1♥ and 1NT are fine.Double by North is takeout - not what North has. I'd bid 2♦ in a heartbeat playing Precision.I can be content with a pass playing 2/1 but would definitely back in at 5♦ over 4♠ South should double 4♠ here to alert North that they hold ♥LR values.
