el mister Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Dealer, all white, match points. ♠Jxx ♥Kx ♦AQJxxxx ♣x 1♦, pass, 1♠, pass to you. Do you like your hand in light of pard's 1S bid? Weighed up 1N, 2♦ and 3♦ at the table - what's the textbook response? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 2D. You could sell me a 2S raise, if I had a 6 carder, but I have a 7 carder, I will repeat my suit. Why 1NT? Do you have a semi bal. hand?3D will get you over bord, you will end up in a lot of hopeless 3NT contracts.If you have game, partner will bid again. With kind regardsMarlowe 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 2♦ is the textbook rebid. You are not strong enough for 3♦, which shows a strong hand. You are not balanced, or even semi-balanced, which rules out 1NT.2♠ with 3-card support and a singleton is not totally silly, but with 7 diamonds it is much better to rebid the diamond suit. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Agree with the comments on the OP. Off beat but will inject a vote for a weak 2d opening assuming pard knows this range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmnka447 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 I'm also a 2 ♦ bidder for the same reasons as the others suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
