(we play SAYC) Found ourselves in this contract, I would like your opinion of all the bidding and also, the 2 diamond transfer as I thought this was rather a good bid, all thoughts and comments are welcomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

han Posted March 17, 2005 Report Share Posted March 17, 2005 East original pass is also helpful... and strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 i don't understand the e/w bidding... why in the world would east pass? as for n/s, the only thing to say concerns south's 1nt... if that's what you'd expect for a 1nt balance, then the rest of the bidding makes perfect sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Why didn't East bid? Why didn't East X 2H? Nothing wrong with the protective 1N bid. Its a bit of a toss up between 1N and 1S; either could be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walddk Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I can spot 3 sensible people at the table. East is not one of them. Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben47 Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Partner cannot have just 1 HCP in this auction at the point you bid 1NT because EW cannot have 28 HCP when they bid 1♣ pass pass. That this was the case after all was not NS's fault. If East didn't double 2♦ I would have ruled "asleep". Now... I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
