acmilan Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 I know it's normal for referees in American tournaments, but i'm still allergy in the knowledge that you don't know what it is or you're misleadingMy link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagles123 Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 I really have no idea what the issue is here, 4C was alerted as Gerber (a very poor bid but so what) and this 4D bid got exactly what it deserved ... irl I guess you could have thought it was T85 - KJT9862 762 ... but harder to use that as an excuse on BBO :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnu Posted July 30, 2022 Report Share Posted July 30, 2022 North clearly misbid. The correct bid instead of 4♦ is 7NT, and then redouble if doubled. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted July 30, 2022 Report Share Posted July 30, 2022 What do you mean by "allergy in the knowledge"? Why did you bid 4♦ when you don't have many diamonds? If you meant it just to show a diamond honor, that's not safe when the opponents are in a strength auction. The opponents will just double you and you have no place to run. You need strength and length in the suit, so you have a worthwhile sacrifice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBengtsson Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 If there are referees in bridge, I guess that they do not have whistles on them lol! But they have red cards, and I think all four players here should have been given one :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
