Will they make it? |
Show Detail |
Not my hand here but was sent this to add to the interesting hands!
Partner opened 1♦ with this hand. The next person doubled. I redoubled, (“10+ points, no support for partner’s suit”) with my 10HCP and singleton diamond, hoping to double again for penalties whatever opps bid next. They didn’t bid anything though! The fourth person only had 3 points and Jxxx in ♥ - which he/she should have bid of course. My partner was happy enough to leave the redouble in and made 9 tricks in the end for +630!
We did have a non-vul 4♠ on, with a 4-3 spade fit, but 630 was much better. Rarely have I seen that happen before.
The moral of that story being.... never leave a redouble in unless you’re absolutely certain that the contract will go off!
