Mbodell Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'd pass. If we have a small slam, we may still be able to get -4. While we very likely have a game, -2 seems just as likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm expecting the punchline to be that N has 7♠/5♦, S also has 5♦ and that you can only make 3♠, 1♣ and maybe a ♦ in defence while you can make 5 or 6♥, but I'd pass.

StevenG Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I know a player who fits the description of North. Last time she opened 2♠ against me, she had nine (yes, nine) spades. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, partner did not find a PASS, choosing 3♠ instead. I responded 6♦, he converted to 6NT and I can't go on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Unfortunately, partner did not find a PASSMy opponents had problems finding pass cards when I used to play a relay system. I used to lend them some of mine but I guess doing so to partner might give away some UI. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cash one spade, 2 diamonds, 3 hearts and 2 clubs then give partner his club ruff with 3 spades to come. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I feel even worse. :P However, this explains why deep finesse was putting 6 under the ♠s column for EW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KurtGodel Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 6h pass=option2With one ace? You must be on drugs. Just pass, collect your 800. Why does everyone think we are making slam? We have all this wastage in their suit, partner only made a takeout double... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
