steve2005 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Is this called bridge? Numerous times you can open 2C so your usually the captain. At it's next turn Gib jumps to slam.Is it a good slam? Who knows?Is 7 there? Who knows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The crapshoot aspect of this is really bothersome. vrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manudude03 Posted May 13, 2018 Report Share Posted May 13, 2018 The problem here is that 4H is described as showing 11 HCP. There aren't that many hands where 7H isn't a really good contract (and yes, I know they do exist) if south really does have those points and short spades.

The idea is to change strategy instead of these stupid jumps. Here 4S is easily available so partner can rein it in.If I stay with original definitions of "points" I have more than necessary. vrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
