I have two suits and even tolerance for diamonds, and hey, maybe pard's got tricks and wants to leave it in. <BR/><BR/>Just because pard "can't" act doesn't mean he's got a bad hand. Give him 2335 and a 17 count. Can he take a call with that? Or a 3433? He doesn't want to double -- he wants you to double. <BR/><BR/>It might be wrong, but I think the benefits outweigh the doubts.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18023166613491155634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8314337641002386924.post-28227282080534227512008-08-21T15:45:00.000-04:002008-08-21T15:45:00.000-04:00Sell it out.

Who knows what the 3rd seat preemptor has, but if partner can't act, he could have a very big hand for a 4H call.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes they're trying to keep you out. Sometimes they want to you to bid 4S unfavorable. Sometimes they don't either way.David Banhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04975245259273567774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8314337641002386924.post-57247760970029091352008-08-20T17:04:00.000-04:002008-08-20T17:04:00.000-04:00I don't like to sell out, but in this case it's un...I don't like to sell out, but in this case it's unlikely we have game if partner can't act. It's IMPs, no game (probably), I pass. IMPs are so easy sometimes.<BR/><BR/>I'm guessing, however, that you doubled. I don't hate the bid or anything.Memphis MOJOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12653631347560307425noreply@blogger.com
