PMetsch Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 3♣, don't see any other option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 2N. I see three options. You can go for the MP 200 and pass it, but that is too big imo. Or you can bid 2N to show your stopper and a minimum hand. That's what I like, 3C could work out too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walddk Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 2NT. My pips are not good enough to convert, not even at matchpoints. I could be wrong of course. Maybe we have 200 where no game makes our way. Declarer will score 6 diamond tricks and possibly an outside tricks. Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickyB Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 A 2♦ overcall over a 1♣ opening is a great pressure bid, so if its frequently five cards I might chance a pass. 2N otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke warm Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 my first thought was to pass, but probably 2nt is better... btw, what would 3d show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 3♦ shows any GF hand. 3♣ to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr1303 Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 2NT. Not much wrong with 3C, but I think 2NT is more descriptive. My trumps are under declarer so definitely not a pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Marlowe Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 Hi, Pass. Hopefully I do this with bored expression, the sameexpression after we scrible down the result 2DX +1. The trouble is, they are red and we are white, whichmeans "weak" could be near opening strength.And his partner may only been waiting to startdoubling me. Maybe we it makes without an overtrick, and 180 is stilla good result for us. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 3♣. This is more comfortable if we play NFB. Some would say that you should have opened 1♦. (Not my style, fwiw). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 With this hand I open 1C, since I intend to rebid 1NT after a major suit from partner. My clubs are a lot stronger than my diamonds, which is an added reason why I prefer the 1C opening, Given that I intended to do this anyway, I see no problem with 2NT now. My partner was prepared for this response when he made a negative double Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blofeld Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 I think I'd pass. It could go horribly wrong, but the hand is looking a likely misfit, so I want to stop at a low level, and I think there's a reasonable chance of a decent score in 2Dx.

Echognome Posted June 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 [hv=d=s&v=e&n=sq94hkqj3d10caj1074&w=sajh9642daqj94c92&e=sk107653h875d863c5&s=s82ha10dk752ckq863]399|300|Scoring: MP1♣-(2♦) - X - (P)2NT - (P) - 4NT - All Pass[/hv] A bit of an annoying hand. I was playing with a partner that is still learning. I passed partner's "quantitative" 4NT like a flash. I received a heart lead and careful defense took me 1 off. 5♣ is down as you can see, but in practice it made +1. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
