When your Multi two diamonds in interferred with. |
|
|
What do you do when your multi 2♦ opening is interfered with? This page was provided my Mr. Michael Barel. |
|
|
|
|
|
When I used to play the Multi 2♦ I used the following: - |
|
|
|
|
|
1) |
If RHO doubles |
|
(a) |
Pass |
suggests playing in 2♦ doubled. Showing 5+♦ 's and implying shortage in a major. |
|
(b) |
2♥/♠ |
retain their meaning as if there were no double. |
|
(c) |
Redouble |
shows willingness to compete at the 3 level. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
2) |
Over a 2♥/♠ overcall |
|
(a) |
Pass |
means you have nothing to say. |
|
(b) |
Double |
means ‘pass if that's your suit, otherwise bid your suit'. The solves the problem when they bid 2♠ and you have ♠x ♥KJxx ♦Axxxx ♣Kxx |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3) |
2NT after any intervention retains its ‘forcing-asking' meaning. Use your usual responses. |
|
|
4) |
3♣/♦ is perhaps best played as non forcing showing a good suit. |
|
|
5) |
3♥/♠ is pass or correct as normal. |
|
|
6) |
3NT is to play. |
|
|
7) |
4♥/♠ is to play. |
|
|
8) |
Double of 2NT and higher is penalty. |
|
|
9) |
Don't worry about opener having the strong types. Your responses should deal primarily with the weak major type. |
