- Bad slam
- 2D & 4C are not obligatory but acceptable. 4D is automatic (it doesn't even promise a D control normally just some slam interest opposite the short club). 4H is correct. 4SP is fine and 5C now gives the void with the minimum (otherwise S would bid directly 5C). So only ...
- bridge experts with gambling addiction?
- I was always under the impression that most bridge players are addicted to gambling(at least old-schoolers). Moreover, they use bridge as their "methadone" as it helps them get similar feelings with gambling without the negative economic impact.
- Debbie Rosenberg's bidding problem: QT8764 3 T85 732
- What is 1NT for them after 1D-1H. It seems they don't play it as natural hence the balanced strong hand without 4 spades is much more probable now. Anyway 3 little diamonds is very bad for offence so I don't think we can make 4SP. PS: I agree ...
- Whats the best way to play this 3NT hand?
- K of H probably with the overcall.
- Standard Turkish?
- I recognise karapet the unlucky and he is one of my all time favourite characters. However, saying that Armenia is a suburb of Turkey is something that if you knew about the genocide you would never have mentioned. That is why i urge you to read about it.
- Standard Turkish?
- "That's a suburb of Turkey" You might want to google Armenian Genocide then edit your comment.
- Charles Blair's bidding problem: 2 A32 A32 765432
- Even if partner is very light you only need an entry to receive your ruff. It must be over 80%
- Defensive Problem
- Easy at imps difficult at mps(you Will have to guess if declared or partner has the J of diamonds at mps)
- What is this double?
- Extras probably no 4H
- Another defensive problem, trick 2 this time
- So what was the full hand?
