Scoring: IMP


We are N/S, unfavourable and W, dealer opens 1. How would you and your partner bid this, with East passing throughout and West comes back in with 3 at his first opportunity if applicable.

depends on who I am :angry:, I would probably overcall 1, wich makes it hard to stop below slam (althou playing 3 doubled is possible). anyway seeing all hands its hard to tell.

I overcall 1d but this is really a dead minimum

so:


(1c)=1d=p=2c
(3c)=X=rest is up to partner

At this vul partner knows I have a real opening hand, real d and c values.

(1 ) pass (pass) X
(3) 3 NT ap

Okay, I confess, I missed 6 Heart and or 6 Diamond.

I like to overcall on 4 card suits but I had not with the north hand.
I like to reopen with 5 card suits, but the south hand does not look like a unilateral heart hand.
Kind Regards

Roland
