- Gabriel Fractman's bidding problem: ATx QJ987 --- K9432
- 2♣ easily distinguishes 5 v 6 trumps ... which seems important to me. Also you find out if there's a 5-4 heart fit -- 1♠ - 2♣ ; 2♥.
- What is going on?
- The final bid would be 3♦.
- Should Michaels require an alert?
- I'm still convinced that first round bids should simply be announced. Like screens, without screens.
- Yuan Shen's bidding problem: A7 AQT62 653 K72
- Really?
- Yuan Shen's bidding problem: A7 AQT62 653 K72
- No specific agreements. "Normal basic bridge"
- Play problem
- I like Aloke's (also Craig's IMPs line) line of ruffing a diamond. I played SQ which got taken by RHO's ace. Another spade, ruffed (!), and a club. Now what?
- How do you play this 2NT bid?
- I'm not sure the game-invite hand with hearts suffers too much from preemption -- it presumably can wait to double 3♠ or 4♠? Sometimes this won't work of course.
- 2C opening to include 20-21 balanced
- I agree the busy hand is so so, but being able to show two suits as responder below 3N is huge.
- Should this Q-bid be Natural?
- We have general agreement that: First cue is artificial (some type of force) Second cue is natural. So with Eric's hand we don't get to play 2♣ but we can play 3♣. The situation is typically more important in a sequence like : 1♦ (2+) 1 ...
- David Libchaber's bidding problem: KQJ63 K5 976 Q54
- I don't think I should play p for A A AK. The side suit of Qxx is a terrible holding. Partner might have started with 2C if he thought Qx(xx) is enough for slam.
