Good luck!

?

Open Question

Question 5

Your Hand
♠ 8 2
♥ K J 9 6 2
♦ Q 6 3
♣ 8 4 2

Q: 5 - What do you bid as South?

South	West	North	East
-	-	1♦	Pass
1♥	Pass	1 NT	Pass
?

A: 2♥ - Even with five cards, you need to bid your Hearts again, with a weak hand opposite a No-Trump rebid. It's a stopper bid - your partner will have to pass, and you will be better off in 2♥ than in 1 NT.

Remember, you would do the same thing opposite a 1 No-Trump opener. You would transfer with five cards and zero points.
