The Odds of Bidding Ogust

 The deal number 11769 seen above is the number of deals BidBase had to randomly generate and test to find 100 deals which matched one of the opening auctions of Ogust:

    • 2 - P - 2N - P
    • 2 - P - 2N - P
    • 2 - P - 2N - P

But BB doesn't just check each deal once. If it doesn't match with South as dealer, then it tries again with West, then North, and East.

This makes the odds of someone/anyone at the table making an Ogust bid 1 in 118 deals.

The odds that just your pair would make an Ogust bid would be 0.5 in 118 deals, or 1 in 236 and the other half of the deals, your opponents would do it.

For just you, the odds double again to just 1 in 472 deals on average. For a 26- or 27-board tournament, you would have a chance to bid Ogust once every 18 tournaments or so.

That's a long time to have to remember the Ogust responses, so be sure to do some practice quizzes regularly.
