Scoring: IMP


Hello, this is the twelfth thread in the big poll. 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: 1♠-P-1N-P-2♠-P-3♠-P-4♠. -420.
b: 1♠-X-XX-2♦-2♠-P-3♠-P-4♠. -420.
c: 1♠-2♥-2N-P-3♠-P-4♠. -420

a-b = 0 IMPs
a-c = 0 IMPs
b-c = 0 IMPs

I think auction c is a little difficult for west, but the ♠QJ are probably sufficient for the game bid. East should accept the invite easily on a and b because of the seventh spade.

a. As I normally do not play 2/1 (and have assumed so in some other hands), I think I will find it more difficult to reach 4S from the E/W hand. But I presume it will be possible.
1S - 2C
2S - 3S
4S
b. and c. Agree with awm.

Flat board, with a bit of trepidation on a.
