Chamaco Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Hi all,I am curious to know which is the standard meaning in an UNDISCUSSED pship, in the following situation. We are either in a notrump contract OR in a suit contract and trumps have been drawn.Declarer (South) runs a long suit ........................AKQJTxx 9742...........................................x .............................x Is first discard count or suit preference ?What about 2ndand later discards ?

whereagles Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 In a casual partnership I would tend to think that first card is count and the rest are random. With my regular pards I usually agree that first card is count and the rest is suit preference. Though in this particular case (declarer has AKQ + lenght) there is a case to play suit preference from the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Nuno :-) I totally agree that suit preference makes more sense here (what is count good for?). I just wanted to verify IF giving suit preference from start can be assumed as standard in an undiscussed partnership, in this specific situation (solid suit). :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
