Scoring: IMP


Hello, this is the second thread in the big poll. If you didn't start at the beginning, please start at the beginning (hand 1). Please provide the most probable result after East opens 1♠ and you either

a) pass
b) double
c) bid 2♥.

Please do a cross imp result like:

a-b:
a-c:
b-c:

(a-c means the imps a wins over c)

Thanks :) Please try to do all 30 hands also :)

a: E/W play 3♣ after 1♠-3♣ INV. Slow cards and stiff club deter bidding. -130.
b: E/W find 4♠ after 1♠-X-XX-2♦-2♠. -420.
c: E/W find 4♠ on 1♠-2♥-3♣-P-3♠. -420.

a-b: 7 IMPs (290)
a-c: 7 IMPs (290)
b-c: 0 IMPs (0)

Note that a non 2/1-GF style might assist E/W in bidding 1♠-2♣-2♥-2♠-3♠-4♠ unobstructed.

Agree with awm except (a)

My prefered style is not 2/1 GF so I will probably reach 4♠ when South passes. West hand has enough to make a 2C bid if you do not play it as GF.

This is a push board for all three sequences.

I think redouble on b is strange. I think it would go 1S - X - 1NT (showing clubs) - 2D or 1S - X - 2C - 2D. I find it hard to say what would happen afterwards.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

A 1♠ 2♣ 2♥ 3♣ all pas -110 or -130-
B 1♠ X 2♣ pass 2♥ pass ??? NO idea what to do. Maybe I would bid 2 ♠ here. Reaching 4 spade looks double dummy , so -170
C 1♠ 2♥??? ugly, what to do with the West hand? You have no established fit and 9 HCPs. Is this enough for a game force? I think, 80 % for yes and -420 and 20 % of 2 ♥ -2 = -380

A:B +50
A:C +250
B:C +210
Kind Regards

1♠-x-1NT-2♦
2♠-pas-3♠-pas
4♠-ap

1♠-2♥-2♠-pas
4♠-ap

1♠-pas-1NT-pas
2♠-pas-3♠-pas
4♠-ap

So flat. Maybe I am influenced by seeing all the cards. I find these cards very hard to bid but I do not think that Souths choice has very much influence on the oucome.

I once yelled at my partner for discarding the 'wrong' card when he was subjected to a squeeze that I allowed by giving the wrong count with too high a card. Now he's allowed to pitch aces when the opponents have the king in the dummy. At trick 2. When he could have followed suit. And blame me.
