1 push, 2 push, 3 down 1 instead of 2, 4 I bid game (started 1N) 5 I figured this hand inspired the video title (I saw the video title before I played this) and it felt greasy because I figured X was probably right, so I decided to flip a coin and it came up 5S-1, 6 push, 7 push, 8 push. 66.96
@Peter Hollands I'd like your thoughts on when TO bid 5 over 5. I was playing with @Charles Cosgrove last night. White-on-white, he and his partner bid 2S-4S and after three passes I came in with 5H due to my 6-5 shape and ended up stealing the hand when 5S was cold and the best they could do defending was +300.
There are definitely times this will happen and it is too hard to always judge correctly. Not bidding will win you far more often that bidding will even those these results will happen. When you should bid is when you hold the freak distributional hand or if you are considering slam. I like bidding 5 over 5 to have a mild slam invite inference. Also vulnerability is key, thinking about the comparative scores of doubling them. If it is equal vul you are assuming you are making 11 tricks and the opponents are making 9 or 10, if you are favorable the target narrows but unfavorable a bigger target.
1/2/6. push 3. I stopped low, 2NT= 75% 4. I embarrassed myself by taking a practice finesse in hearts. :( 5. I like bidding 4S directly in third position (when slam is unlikely) especially against bots. Bots didn't bid 5C. 100% 7. I broke parity with declarer in spades. I should know better. :( 8. I led a diamond at trick 5 instead of tapping declarer in spades. No good reason for that after declarer discarded a spade and dummy was dead. 59.4% Thanks, Peter.
@@jyutzler My results: 1/4/7/8 push. 2. Went down one at 2NT, still not sure how I screwed that one up. 0% hurts. 3. Made 1NT. 5. Was snookered into bidding 5S, went down one. Lesson learned! 6. Passed out, need to be a little bolder in these tournaments.
You “always never bid” at the five level...I completely expected you to do it. Good on you for the double. From the bottom of barrel, if you think, “Oh, the club lead sets up a winner” and keycard, then forget your partner can’t have three keycards with their hand, you earn exactly what you deserve....
After opening 1NT a common convention to play is transfers. My partner's bid didn't say anything about hearts it actually said I have 5 of the higher ranking suit than I bid (spades in this instance) I was just bidding what partner told me to bid.
@@jigobiyoyo4006 It isn't attached to a particular system. It is a convention that is pretty universally played. I would look at conventions when responding to 1NT
RECENTLY WATCHED TWO VIDEOS IN ROW WHERE YOU GO OFF ON A TANGENT PLAYING HANDS YOUR "NOT" SHOWING ON THE VIDEO? GREAT DIALOG BUT THE WTF HOW DO WE FOLLOW ALONG LOOKING AT THE LAST HAND WHILE YOU GO OFF INTO THE NEXT BOARD ? " BAD STREAK? UNDERSTATEMENT. when are you going to start calling out BBO on the horrible robot bidding?
