The_Badger Posted November 24, 2018 Report Share Posted November 24, 2018 I'm not too keen on the takeout double vulnerable on the second round as West could be unlimited, but it does look like your points are 'working' and whilst ♠652 is hardly a suit, I prefer double than a 2♦ overcall if West had opened 1♥.

HardVector Posted November 24, 2018 Report Share Posted November 24, 2018 I'm ok with the south bidding. It could be better (have 4 spades), but takeout doubles are not always ideal. The north hand, though, should bid 2n to show values and hearts stopped. Even if partner had 4 spades, you don't have a hand that is conducive to play in a suit. The 2n bid should put the brakes on partner's bidding if the opponents should continue bidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akwoo Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 The initial pass by south is right. The second round double is a bit aggressive but okay. As North, I would pass at MPs and bid 2S at IMPs. (I'm not sure I have a natural 2N available in this auction, and even then, it seems risky.)

hrothgar Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 I think that the auction is reasonable. I think that you would have done better using the second club trick to cross to the board for another heart ruff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
