AL78 Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 I was South, playing Benj Acol weak NT, IMP pairs: [hv=pc=n&s=s93hakq6d3cqj9653&w=skqt84h987dak72c2&n=s52ht54dq654cakt7&e=saj76hj32djt98c84&d=s&v=n&b=15&a=1c1s2c3s4c4sppp]399|300[/hv] We got this two down for -5.5 imps. Two and a half tables so there was only one other score which was 5♣= when West tried cashing the ♦AK. What should I take home from this, if anything?

helene_t Posted April 23, 2022 Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 North's 2cl bid is fine if you were playing strong nt, but playing weak nt, North has to help partner with what to do in case South has a balanced 15-17. So 2sp showing a good club raise is better. It might lead to 5cl which doesn't make, you will need to take a view to reach 4spX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AL78 Posted April 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2022 Play in bigger fields. :) I have decided to quit this monthly competition. IMP pairs with two and a half tables with the cards running the other way is a hideous slog and is not enjoyable. This is around the standard turnout for this event.
