 Bid a Hand by Matthias Huberschwiller

You will have a hand to bid through a complete auction.

Will you get all the bids right?

Good luck!

Question 1

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 6 3
♥ K J 7 4
♦ 8 3
♣ A Q 6 		 
Q: 1 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2 NT - This is the Jacoby 2 NT, showing at least four Spades and at least game-going values.

It's a great way to start the auction because you know where you are going.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 2

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 6 3
♥ K J 7 4
♦ 8 3
♣ A Q 6 		 
Q: 2 - Is your partner's 3♠ bid discouraging or encouraging?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
2 NTPass3♠


 Your choice:
A: Encouraging - Your side is already committed to game. Therefore, if your partner wanted to discourage you, he would have bid 4♠.

When he bids 3♠, he is saying that he has a good hand and is encouraging you to try for a slam.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 3

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 6 3
♥ K J 7 4
♦ 8 3
♣ A Q 6 		 
Q: 3 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
2 NTPass3♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 4♣ - The next step in a slam-going auction is to verify your side controls all the side-suits.

You don't have a Diamond control, therefore you must cue-bid your first control, in Clubs, hoping your partner controls Diamonds.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 6 3
♥ K J 7 4
♦ 8 3
♣ A Q 6 		 
Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
2 NTPass3♠Pass
4♣Pass4♦Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 4 NT - Your partner has a Diamond control. Perfect. You can go to the next step, Blackwood.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 6 3
♥ K J 7 4
♦ 8 3
♣ A Q 6 		 
Q: 5 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
2 NTPass3♠Pass
4♣Pass4♦Pass
4 NTPass5♥Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 6♠ - You are missing one keycard (your partner has two), therefore the small slam is where you want to play.

Your partner's hand:
♠ K J 10 8 7 2
♥ Q 3 2
♦ A 7
♣ K J

Partner will take out the trumps, discard his Diamond loser on a Club, and then drive out the ♥A to make the perfectly-bid small slam.

Your result so far:
Open Question
