What sort of hand did responder have?


Balanced raise to 4H. It was against randoms on bbo though so no alerts and stuff...

Polarized. Pure penalty or thin takeout.


I am not a fan. I still should have included the option in the poll though.

Please no "in pick-up partnership this is...", this is serious question about the best agreement, not about practical choices when you don't know and have to guess.
So... ? :)


thot this was BBF where ALL doubles are takeout and NO PROTECTION doubles are allowed

Technical question: is it possible to multiquote Wyman both before and after Bluecalm?

Seems like the most obvious penalty double ever. Sometimes you hold Axx AQT Axxx xxx or whatever. I think this is a terrible auction for 2 way doubles also.
