ahydra Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 I'll try 3C, not 100% convinced about it though. ahydra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillPatch Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Pass. Looks like an unusual NT overcall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 Pass. Looks like an unusual NT overcall.Unusual NT overcalls are of somewhat dubious value, they may help the opps more than hinder them, especially here where you would be in the sandwich seat rather than direct. I believe a direct 3♣ has more value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAce Posted July 19, 2015 Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 PASS for me. If I was forced to open something, I'd rather prefer 2♦ over 3♣, holding these clubs. For some reason opening a weak 2 with 5 cards and a good suit attracts me more than opening a 3 level preempt with 6 card and a bad suit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_clown Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 No way I am passing 3rd seat fav with a 6-5 and 2 cards in the majors. 3♣ looks routine to me, but I could understand opening 2♦, even 1m is way better than pass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinksy Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 I'll join the 3♣ bidders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenG Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 In my experience, 3♣ almost guarantees that they'll bid a making major suit game, whereas pass at least gives them a chance of messing up whenever partner is close to an opening.

karlson Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Definitely not my style to pass. Either 3♣ or some psych. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
