steve2005 Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Gib only has 12 hcp you can hardly expect it to go to game :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigpenz Posted August 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 I understand that, but in 15 plays 12 other gibs didnt have a problem without partner bidding anything other than raising spades.if gibs partner shows 6 hearts and 3 spades the odds are greatly increased especially with 11 card fit my point is what helps partner the most, you have already shown three card support, bidding Three spades over three clubs doesnt give any extra info to partner.

I'm joking. Some people would open this 4♠. is ridiculous of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
