Minimum to order 1st round 2nd seat

Unread post by jblowery » Fri Dec 06, 2019 3:32 pm

Let's say the upward is (Card_K-H) ie an average card. What do you need to have at a minimum to order that up? Here are some examples. Assume other cards are junk. Trying to keep this simple.

(Card_J-H) (Card_10-H)
(Card_Q-H) (Card_10-H) (Card_A-S)
(Card_A-H) (Card_10-H) (Card_A-S)
(Card_Q-H) (Card_A-S) (Card_A-C)

For me it will also depend on how many voids I have. If I have 0 voids depending on score etc I am likely not calling it. I can’t make a decision without knowing my junk cards. That being said if I have at least one void I would likely call the Right 10. The others likely a pass depending on situation.

Also depends on the score and how good your partner is. For instance, if I'm your partner and I'm holding left and a side ace, I'd probably order up the king myself. If you've got one of those random internet partners that won't order up without having a loner though, your choice becomes a little more complicated.

I agree not enough information here there would be multiple ways handle these situations and play would be affected as well.

Assume neutral score. 3-3. Average partner. Junk side cards.

Ok so at 3-3 with an average partner. Here's what I would do with the king of hearts upward to dealer.

1st scenario order.
2nd scenario, pass.
3rd scenario, pass.
4th scenario, pass.


It changes significantly if it a jack of hearts though.
