♥ K 6 3

-1♦1♠Pass

♣ 5 		 
Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♣1♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 4♠ - Yes, don't be shy! With a ten-card fit, you need to bid to the four-level, especially with a singleton.

You could make 4♠, and even if you go down, it could be a great score if East-West have a contract on their way.

Your result so far:
Open Question

?


 Your choice:
A: 4♦ - You are going to play in game at least, but you could make a slam if your partner's hand is fitting well opposite your singleton Diamond.

Make a splinter-bid, showing points, a great Heart fit, and a singleton in Diamonds, West's suit.
