 Responding to a Major-suit Opening With a Fit by Matthias Huberschwiller

In this quiz, you will have fit in the major suit your partner has opened.

Good luck!

Question 1

  Your Hand
 8 3
 A 9 6
 K 9 6 2
 J 8 6 2
 
Q: 1 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
--1Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2 - This one is not that hard. A raise to 2 shows 6-10 supporting points.

The supporting points are HCPs, plus one for a doubleton, two for a singleton, and three for a void. Here, you have 8 HCP, then add 1 for the doubleton Spade. That's 9 supporting points.

Your result so far:
Open Question

?


 Your choice:
A: 4 - Yes I know, scary right? With a 10-card fit, the Law of Total Tricks says it's a good thing to bid to the 4-level as a preemptive bid, showing a weak hand with five Hearts.
