Poky Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 pass 1♦ Dbl pass??? ♠Q5♥K5♦9854♣KJ954 What do you bid?Does any difference if you were an unpassed hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 3♣. Usually this would be risky (pard may not have 3 clubs), but given my hand he rates to be short in diamonds, so the 3♣ bid should be safe. The alternative woud be 1NT, but that might make it hard for pard to drive to 5♣ on a good 4414. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, 2C, a slight underbid, independ of being a passed hand. Being a passed hand, makes this a little bit less risky,because, I expect my partners to shade their requirement opposite a passed partner. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerben42 Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 3♣ sounds about right. The suit is good enough and the points are right. No worries. Same bid by an unpassed hand. Just bid what you have! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walddk Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 3♣. When I jump in a minor, I like to have 5. Passed or unpassed, makes no difference to me. Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double ! Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 3♣all cards seem to be working: no wasted diamond cards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearmum Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Would have been interested to see VUL as well as the cards as this can make a difference to the bids I voted for 2♣ as it's possible partner is stretching HIS requirements for the X ;) Would also only bid 2♣ if NOT a passed hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civill Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 IMO 3♣ means non-blank hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker_gib Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 2♣ is a clear underbid and with 5 cards I have no problem to bid my hand, so 3♣ Alain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
