Open Question

Question 3

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


 Your choice:
A: 4♥ - With a weak hand and a 10-card fit, you need to jump to game. It's the "weak freak", a pre-emptive bid.

The law of total tricks says that if you don't make 4♥, the odds are great that your opponents have a contract of their own.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

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


 Your choice:
A: 4♣ - You are too good for a direct jump to 4♠. You have a perfect bid available: the splinter.

Bidding 4♣ shows at least 4 Spades, game-going values, and a singleton in Clubs. It's up to partner to choose whether to try for slam or not.

Your result so far:
Open Question
