- Julia Palmer's bidding problem: AKQJT7432 --- K7 KT
- I'm (perversely?) hoping that partner has none just to see their face when I put the pass card on the table after the 5♠ response to exclusion.
- A Common Problem
- 1N gets the hand type across in 1 bid; perfect except for the 1 teeny flaw and against worst minor partnerships (players that like to open weakest minor with 33 to inhibit lead) ; even less of a concern.
- Kevin Lane's bidding problem: A52 AJ875 AQ Jxx
- Not bypassing 4♥, those hands can bid 4♦
- Help me choose: what to read next?
- I don't think you can go wrong with any of these choices but I'm partial to Kelsey.
- Mild slam try over 2NT opener with a major 5-5
- I would start with stayman; if partner shows a major I will make a move to slam (typically bidding the other major shows this i.e. 3S over 3H, 4H over 3S). If not, slam chances decrease and I will Smolen with 3H planning to play 4M if I have ...
- Kevin Lane's bidding problem: A52 AJ875 AQ Jxx
- Any hand that can make a slam try opposite a 3rd seat opener can be opened in 1st chair.
- Missed Game
- Steve --- Would you invite with responder's hand opposite flannery? Slow honors in minors and bad trumps. Partner has an absolute miracle: uber max, great hearts, the ♣K, only the ♠K and game is not cold.
- What is wrong with using Double Dummy Simulations
- This bias also applies to opening leads ...
- A dramatic deal from the Polish Open Teams
- Why is West doubling 7♣? I'll take +50 happily. Once the double is made, West should certainly double 7N to tell partner he has an ace rather than a void. That should prevent a spade lead at least.
- Your play in the trump suit
- I was also going to include that partners diamonds could be much weaker if NT opener bid 4♥ over 3N. Righty can certainly have the trump length but i don't have the transportation to do anything other than ace and another ♥. If RHO has the trump length ...
