In fact, there is no need for Leb or no Leb or anything here. 2♥, 2♠, 2NT, 3♣ should all be natural and they should be done on 99% of hands. If you passed on a 55 majors 10 count, fine, bid 3♦ over my double. Special hands with a major might want to bid 3M or 4M. Second, what on Earth is this 2NT then 3♦ sequence? A cuebid for "my clubs" ?? Third, please don't complain about my bidding. It's really not the point. This should be a double that exists.

manudude03 Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 Interesting enough, 3C apparently shows rebiddable clubs over 2NT. I guess that's the issue with the definition. I do agree with you in general though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps lower values should be included too.Yes, Lebensohl makes no sense at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammen Posted January 18, 2018 Report Share Posted January 18, 2018 I assume you made 10 tricks when west led a club and then pitched a spade on the fourth round of clubs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean (ignoring Lebensohl), say the ladder for 2H/3H/4H was 0-7/8-11/12+ total points, have them now be: 0-11/12-13/14+. In fact, all (100%) of hands with a 4-card major should just bid it on the 2-level at this point. OK maybe you can do something else with a 4009.

jdonn Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 I don't know if it's because of this thread or not, but this came up for discussion recently. In the next version I believe they are making 2N natural opposite a passed hand takeout double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 I don't know that that was specifically addressed, but the odds go up when the new rule eliminates the bid he actually made :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 North has just too many bad experiences with human Robot Reward players who pass in first seat with random 15-counts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan_O Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 I assume you made 10 tricks when west led a club and then pitched a spade on the fourth round of clubs? West is not allowed to lead anything, when North is declaring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
