♥ KQ75 ♦ J642 ♣ 3 1♦-1♥; 1NT(15-17)-2♠; 2NT-3♦; 3♥-? |
5♦
Responder's 2♠ established a game force. Opener's 3♥ expressed doubt about 3NT (for lack of club guards) but showed three hearts (in case responder is 4=5=4=0). 5♦ is likely the best game. |
|
♠ AJ2
♥ 864 ♦ AQ83 ♣ A76 1♦-1♥; 1NT(15-17)-2♠; ? |
2NT
Responder's 2♠ established a game force. 2NT asks responder's third suit since 3NT may be in jeopardy if responder is short in clubs. |
|
♠ AJ2
♥ 864 ♦ AQ83 ♣ A76 1♦-1♥; 1NT(15-17)-2♠; 2NT-3♦; ? |
3♥
3NT is unattractive since responder is short in clubs. Show three hearts in case responder is 4=5=4=0. |
|
♠ AJ2
♥ 864 ♦ KQ83 ♣ AQT 1♦-1♥; 1NT(15-17)-2♠; 2NT-3♦; ? |
3NT
With such powerful clubs, opener is happy to play in notrump even though responder is short there. So why even bid 2NT? Does it show three hearts by implication? |
|
♠ A42
♥ AJ4 ♦ 9762 ♣ AK3 1♦-1♥; 1NT(15-17)-2♠; 2NT-3♣; ? |
3♥
3NT is risky since responder is short in diamonds. |
|
♠ KQ53
♥ KQ75 ♦ 3 ♣ J742 1♦-1♥; 1NT(15-17)-2♠; 2NT-3♣; 3♥-? |
4♥
Best game. Opener is probably 3=3=4=3 without diamond guards. |
