 "Can't Get No Satisfaction" - Rebids over NT by Marti Ronemus

Ah, the old Rolling Stones song... so perfect to describe today's bidding sequences... as you'll soon see. Pard responds 1 No-trump to our opener in each example. What should we do next? Pard has limited his hand to 6-9/10 pts, so we know what we're dealing with. (Pun intended.)

Question 1

  Your Hand
♠ 9
♥ K Q J 9 3 2
♦ A Q 2
♣ 7 6 5 		 
Q: 1 - As South, what's our rebid?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♥Pass1 No-trumpPass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♥: We have a minimum hand and no desire to play in No-trump with our singleton Spade. Our rebid shows both our minimum opener and our great suit.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 2

  Your Hand
♠ A J 7 3
♥ Q 9 4 3
♦ K J 9
♣ K 5 		 
Q: 2 - South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♦Pass1 No-trumpPass
?


 Your choice:
A: Pass: Pard's 1 No-trump bid denied holding a four-card (or longer) major, so we really have nothing else to say, especially since we have at most 23 pts between us.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 3

  Your Hand
♠ A Q 10 9 2
♥ K J 9 8
♦ K 4 3
♣ 2 		 
Q: 3 - As South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♠Pass1 No-trumpPass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♥: We are unbalanced, with nine cards in two suits. That usually means we don't want to be in No-trump. Our 2♥ bid is non-forcing and Pard may pass it if he likes it better than Spades.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ A K 10 9 2
♥ K J 9 8
♦ K 4 3
♣ A 		 
Q: 4 - As South this time?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♠Pass1 No-trumpPass
?


 Your choice:
A: 3♥: We are still unbalanced, but we want to force Pard to bid again. We've got a great game-going hand and want to see what Pard bids next.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ 2
♥ 8 4 3
♦ A K J 10 2
♣ K Q 10 2 		 
Q: 5 - Last chance. South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♦Pass1 No-trumpPass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♣: We are (still!) unbalanced, but this time with a minimum hand, and two suits to show. By bidding 2♣, we show Pard 9-plus cards in two suits, asking Pard to take a preference, either by passing Clubs or correcting to Diamonds.

And now, let's Roll with the Stones and play a hand.
