Jay Becker Your partner opens one no-trump (16 to 18 points), and your right-hand opponent bids Two Spades. What would you bid now with each of the following five hands? 1. A9 VAJ83 AJ83K982 2. 752 VJ8 493 AKJ3 3.4J6 A5 QfiTC J8542 4 3 VAJ5874 K935 A 86 5.410 62 4K743 QJ7643 1. Three spades.

Obviously this is a game-going hand with 13 high-card points facing a notrump bid you're not in position at this point to determine the best final contract. Naturally you prefer to play the hand in a suit rather than in notrump, because the singleton spade is a liability in notrump. But rather than name one of your suits, which could easily prove to be the wrong one, it is better to cuebid tion. Two notrump does not affirm or deny spade strength. Partner may pass or go on, depending on his hand.

He will think you have 8 or 9 points, but should allow for the possibility you have only 7 points in this competitive situation. 4 Four hearts. You can't afford to stop below game with this layout, and it is best to bid it at once. This is not Just an 8-point hand, though that's all you have in high cards. The 1-64-2 distribution is worth at least 4 points more.

Slated differently, you have six or seven probable winners opposite a notrump bid, and you'd have to be very unlucky not to make four hearts. 5. Three clubs. This is the type of hand where you'd like to compete for a part score ithout having your partner treat the bid as forcing. You can probably make three clubs, and partner is highly unlikely to be able to make three notrump.

spades, thus requesting partner to choose a suit Partner may, of course, respond three notrump, indicating a double-stopper in spades. If that occurs you should pass. Notrump may be best after all. 2. Three notrump.

You should have no qualms about undertaking a notrump game holding six probable dub tricks despite the absence of a spade stopper. There is a strong probability that partner has at least one spade stopper, and you should brush aside the bare possibility that he is wide open in that suit Note that a three club bid is not forcing in this sequence. It is merely a competitive bid for a part score. 3. Two notrump.

That is what you'd have bid had your opponent passed, and you shouldn't vary your response because of the interven lie Em nfmum. Ride BART to The Emporium on Memorial Day, May 30. For complimentary tickets and information visit our BART Information Booth, Main Floor, Downtown.
