daffydoc Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 NEVER EVER JUMP over a pre - that should be a control ask - 3H forcing and 4H over 4D any hand with ak dam has a play daffydic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtK78 Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 NEVER EVER JUMP over a pre - that should be a control askThis is an interesting point. But it is not standard. I play that all jump responses to preempts are control asks, so to get to 4 of a major after a 3 of a minor preempt, one has to bid 3 of a major (forcing) first. I would never assume that a jump to 4 of a major was a control ask without prior agreement with partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pass = 9, 4♥ = 8. 5♦ = 6. Hard choice at Matchpoints, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesleyC Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I think the field forces to game on this hand (with or without a 3D opening), so i'm going to stick with them for now and bid 3H. Passing isn't unreasonable and could easily be the technically best choice (eg. if the last making spot is 3H), but if that is the case we might only be salvaging an average.

But I agree that passing is also very reasonable at MP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
