oldem Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Few hours ago, I happened to play the following hand as East.With 3NTXX made for 12.5 IMPs, I thought we were the top. But, to my surprise, after checking other tables, I found that we were only second top, for there was a 4HxS-5 for 14.2 IMPs for another EW pair![hv=pc=n&s=s7654haqj96dtcq96&w=sqj92hk432dkqj7c8&n=st83htd9653cat743&e=sakh875da842ckj52&d=e&v=n&b=2&a=1np2cd2d3c3dp3ndrppp]399|300[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullve Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 I suppose the bidding at the other table went something like this: [hv=pc=n&d=e&v=n&a=1n2c(Capp)x4c(I have excellent support)x4h(partner is an idiot)xp(partner is an idiot)ppp]200|150[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

661_Pete Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I suppose, that simply shows the price of being non-vul against vul. That -5x penalty was bigger than your redoubled game. Simple arithmetic. I don't know what S was doubling on, mind you. Expecting to run the hearts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
