TylerE Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 2♠ seems clear. Partner can absolutely be 64xx on this auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidKok Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 Furthermore, partner can have as many as 17 points on this auction. Passing is too unilateral, 2♠ keeps the bidding open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pescetom Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 2♠ seems clear. Partner can absolutely be 64xx on this auction. He can also be 55xx for that matter... 2♠ in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jillybean Posted May 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 hmmm...2♠ it was. There was some discussion afterwards claiming passing 2♥ could be better to give declarer more ruffing ability in ♦'s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could, depends on your agreements about how much partner needs for 3♥. If game is not going to be on, pass is not unreasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 AKxxx AKxxx Kx x: is this a jumpshift in your methods? It’s not, in mine, but give me the major suit 10’s and I’m tempted. AKxxxx AKxx Kx x. Same issue. So 2S is mandatory at imps, in order to allow partner another call. Heck, I’ve seen hands where his next bid, over 2S, is 3C. Not that I’m expecting that, lol. But AJxxx AKxx x KQx? How do you think that hand should be bid? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBengtsson Posted May 20, 2021 Report Share Posted May 20, 2021 2♠ here. a hand where precision handle better than 2/1 as openers strength is limited. partner with honours in ♥/♠ could make 50/50 game opposite your 2 aces but will not be able to move after simple preference bid of 2♠ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
