Vampyr Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 I don't think having an illegal agreement is quite the same thing as making a psychic bid. :unsure: No, in fact it is the opposite, in a way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackshoe Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Hm. So you're thinking that because it's illegal to agree to open on fewer than 8 HCP, opening with fewer than 8 HCP is automatically a psych? I'm not sure that follows. Or maybe I'm just misunderstanding. :blink: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Or maybe I'm just misunderstanding. :blink:I believe you are. I think she was agreeing on you, since "the opposite [of a psych], in a way" is not a psych. I thought he meant "No" as in "No, it's not the same", not "No, you're wrong".

Zelandakh Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 I think he was agreeing on you,Vampyr is a lady, Barry! And I also took this statement to read that having an illegal agreement is the opposite of making a psychic bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesleyC Posted June 9, 2015 Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 FWIW I don't know the context of the situation (and don't really care). East's opening bid is certainly crazy but I've done worse. West's pass over 2S at favourable is pretty suspicious, pass wouldn't be a logical alternative for any sound player. So the combination of actions looks a bit dubious.
