In this quiz, your partner will have overcalled and you will have to respond.

Will you get every bid right?

Good luck!

Question 1

  Your Hand
♠ 9 6 3
♥ Q 9 6 5 2
♦ 6
♣ K 8 4 2 		 
Q: 1 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♦1♥Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 4♥ - Yes, you have a weak hand, but you have a ten-card Heart fit, so you need to pre-empt to the four-level.

The law of total tricks says that it will be good to bid 4♥; either you will make your contract, or your opponents were making a contract of their own.

Your result so far:
Open Question

-1♣1♥Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♥ - With only 9 supporting points (8 points and 1 point for the doubleton), you need to support Hearts. Don't mention your Spades.

♥ 10 9 6 2

Q: 3 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♦1♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♦ - With a fit and a lot of points, you need to start with a cue-bid, to check how many points your partner has. He could have as few as 8 points.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 6
♥ A 2

Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♣1♥Pass

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ 8 2
♥ A Q 6
♦ K Q 8 5
♣ 5 4 3 2 		 
Q: 5 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♣1♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 1 NT - This shows 8 to 12 points, but does not promise a Club stopper.

What else could you bid? If your partner has only 8 points, you don't belong at the two-level.
