 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!

SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♣ - You need to bid Clubs first with 4-4 in the minors. Don't bid 3 NT right away, even if you play it as natural, since you don't have a Heart stopper.

Your result so far:
Open Question

2♣Pass2♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 3♦ - If your partner has only five Spades, you need to play in 3 NT, but you still don't have a Heart stopper.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ J 6
♥ J 4 2

Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
2♣Pass2♠Pass
3♦Pass3♥Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 3♠ - Your partner does not have a Heart stopper (he would have bid 3 NT himself otherwise). Therefore, you can't bid 3 NT either.

Bid 3♠ to show your two-card support, and let partner choose where to play.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ J 6
♥ J 4 2
♦ A K J 5
♣ K J 10 8 		 
Q: 5 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1♠Pass
2♣Pass2♠Pass
3♦Pass3♥Pass
3♠Pass3 NTPass
?


 Your choice:
A: Pass - North does not have a Heart stopper, but maybe he has a half-stopper, which will work well with your J x x.

Your partner's hand:
♠ Q 10 9 8 7
♥ Q 3
♦ Q 7 2
♣ A Q 3

Partner will have no problems making nine tricks in No-trump now that you have found that your two hands combined have a Heart stopper, even though neither of you has a stopper alone.

Your result so far:
Open Question
