Of course, if I'm CERTAIN that the opps will bid out to 6H, I'll double that instead. ;-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02922284956637194954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8314337641002386924.post-50211018591664059712009-02-13T21:17:00.000-05:002009-02-13T21:17:00.000-05:00(A) 5C- I'm hoping opps will either bid 5H or part...(A) 5C<BR/>- I'm hoping opps will either bid 5H or partner will bid 5S, or both.<BR/><BR/>(B) X<BR/>- certainly, there's a chance that EW have a freakish hand and are going to make it, but failing to X feels like I'm guaranteeing a bottom.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07371274019640592379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8314337641002386924.post-2412113993942660732009-02-13T19:21:00.000-05:002009-02-13T19:21:00.000-05:00(a) 5C; I'm aceless.(b) pass, I'm aceless.(a) 5C; I'm aceless.<BR/>(b) pass, I'm aceless.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17043486085235841079noreply@blogger.com
