Precision 1D-1M-1NT = 11-12 HCP, alertable in ACBL land?
|
| |
The subject says it all.
Precision 1D (2+ diamonds, less than 16 "points") - 1M - 1NT = 11-12
HCP
Alertable in the ACBL?
Presumably, at a local club the lack of an alert has led to opponents
supposedly getting "stolen from" not realizing opener's hand is so
weak.
It is true from [link] , that... more »

How do you play this sequence?
|
| |
Playing in the Regional last week, my partner and I had a disagreement
about this sequence:
2NT-3H; 3S-5NT.
(3H is a transfer to spades.)
How does the group feel this ought to be played?

What is this double?
|

MPs, EW Vuln
W N E S
1S - - 1N
2S X - South's 1NT is protective (10-14). Playing a simple game (no previous agreement), is north's double for
takeout or penalties?
Thanks all

Partner opens 1NT (15-17) and the next player passes. What do you
do? Would you bid differently if it was imps (if vulnerabilty matters
please mention that.)

A Zero LTC Hand
|
| |
My LHO in first seat in a pairs game had:
VOID AKQTXX AKQJX AK
Which is pretty much the strongest hand I have ever seen. He opened
2C, as even I would do, and his partner responded 2D. He rebid 2H and
his partner bid 2S. He bid 3D got a 3H preference and bid seven.
His partner put down KQJXX JXX X XXXX and declarer won the Club lead,... more »

Response sytem to 2C with no HCP but 6 Spades?
|
| |
Partner opens 2C and our agreemen is to respond with a strong 5-card
major or else 2D.
Holding a 6=2=3=2 hand with 6 spades I would respond 2D and partner
rebids 3C.
What agreements could allow me to bid 3S? I dont expect this to happen
soon.

One from the club
|
| |
I wasn't present for this hand, but have had two different people call
and ask me what I would do. I don't really think there is a "right"
answer, but figured that it would generate a lot of discussion here.
RHO opens 1H in first seat and you gaze upon:
AKQxxxxxx, A, Kx, x
they're vul and you're not. What's the popular choice here?... more »
