- How do you rule this claim ?
- The claim was a safety play of sort ...
- Who won the French team championship?
- this ruling is an encouragement to be unhelpful to opponents ans answwer no partnership agreement when there is any uncertainty about a bid.
- Would you Dbl, overcall 1Nt, or do something else?
- Easy : pass . good news partner is playing it. You gambled you lost . next board. Good partners do notre vie 2♦
- Blame or No Blame
- Well responding with the north hand is another type of gamble ; if I were to try this my partner would bid 2NT ou 1♥ (assuming I am not playing walsh). I'd rather take my chances in 1♣ : Not always obvious for oppontents to pass the hand out ...
- Yuan Shen's bidding problem: 93 J982 AKJ4 T42
- re: Cliff's comment . May be 1♦ was not an option (playing walsh for instance)
- Steve Weinstein's bidding problem: A987 9543 865 Q6
- 3♠ has a lot going for it : partner will play the skinny 4♥ contract and it keeps diamonds or even 3NT in the picture . Am ok with the first round pass but now my hand has become huge on the bidding. BTW think/assume 4♦ by partner ...
- Henry Bethe's bidding problem: K5 AJ52 AQ T8654
- I would not rebid 1♥ over 1♦ playing walsh since partner would never cue bid a club singleton after that start . This is clearly a 1NT rebid (it looks like a 1NT opening but K&R rates the hand at 14). Not sure how to recover after the ...
- Henry Bethe's bidding problem: K76 42 9876 AQ75
- We do not play ELC in my partnership, still i think 2♥ should be corrective (4S5H too weak to bid twice and planning to pass 2♣). Nice problem though : at the table , i would be reluctant to pass since I think Gary's view is probably the default ...
- Henry Bethe's bidding problem: AT732 8 KJ7 Q543
- this is a guessing game FWIW i would assume 2♠ is a jump fit . As for 3NT either 18-19 with 4S (4225) or running minor . Go figure . I would try 4♣ as a hedge
- German case
- Yes indeed. Cannot help wondering how their teammates could not notice there was something fishy going on
