helene_t Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 You are GIB and you hold something like (sorry, I can't find the hand anymore)♠Qxx♥xx♦Axxx♣Kxxx You are dealer and you pass pass-(pass)-1♠-(pass)2♣-(pass)-pass!-2♥3♣??? OK, this isn't technically a fielded psyche, I know. But I still found it interesting that GIB would make this bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nullve Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 P-1♠; 2♣-P = "No suitable call -- 6+ ♠; 11+ HCP; strong rebiddable ♣; biddable ♠; 12-13 total points" :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pescetom Posted July 24, 2018 Report Share Posted July 24, 2018 I don't play Drury but I remember reading that 2♣ - 3♣ showed a real club suit, which is probably what GIB is thinking. I've no idea what pass by the opener might mean [EDIT] just seen explanation by nullve, thanks. In that case 3♣ looks a little timid.

Seen it many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted July 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 No, sorry if this wasn't clear. GIB's human partner passed the 2♣ bid (having four small spades and six clubs, so it wasn't really a psyche but that's not the point) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen it many times. Assuming that the explanation of pass cited by nullve is how GIB agrees to play, then I think the issue is that GIB bid only 3♣ knowing that he has a promising double fit in ♠ and ♣.
