pescetom Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 It would help to know agreements about 4♥ over 3♠. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnu Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 ***7♦*** You side has about 40+ points on this deal. East has 25+ to bid at the 4 level with no support. West has at least 16 points, 8 HCP, 5 for the void in spades, 3 for the singleton in hearts, maybe more points for the two 6 card suits. Partner can correct to hearts or clubs if diamonds isn't the right denomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pigpenz Posted May 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 It would help to know agreements about 4♥ over 3♠.seems like a pretty normal auction to me i would expect east to be under some pressurebut would be bidding to make 4 ♥ I hope if he is my partner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerriman Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 Given 4NT is Blackwood for the bots, and you wouldn't have posted it otherwise, I expect they picked 5♦ and got lucky, they often seem to pick the higher suit rather than stronger.

sfi Posted May 15, 2020 Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 Although the shape's a bit extreme I would have doubled to show values and a hand that isn't sure what to do. That will probably end the auction more than I would like, but we must have reasonable chances of taking five tricks if partner isn't going to bid on.

pigpenz Posted May 15, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2020 maybe I should have added 5NT as a choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbartley Posted May 17, 2020 Report Share Posted May 17, 2020 maybe I should have added 5NT as a choice 5NT is probably grand slam force in hearts, not pick a minor suit slam. I would try double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
