 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!

Q: 1 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
?--


 Your choice:
A: 2♣ - With 22 or more points and a balanced hand, you need to open 2♣. You are too strong for a 2 NT opener.

2♣Pass2♦Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2 NT - Your partner's 2♦ is a relay bid. He's not telling you anything about his diamonds.

Show your balanced hand with 2 NT (with more than 24, you would bid 3 NT).

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 3

  Your Hand
♠ K 4 2
♥ A K J 8

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ K 4 2
♥ A K J 8
♦ A K Q 7
♣ K 5
 
Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?

2♣Pass2♦Pass
2 NTPass3♣Pass
?


 Your choice:

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ K 4 2
♥ A K J 8
♦ A K Q 7
♣ K 5
 
Q: 5 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
2♣Pass2♦Pass
2 NTPass3♣Pass
3♥Pass3 NTPass
?


 Your choice:
A: Pass - Your partner has chosen the final contract, and you don't have four spades.

Your partner's hand:
♠ J 8 7 5
♥ Q 2
♦ 10 4 3 2
♣ J 7 3

You have eight immediate tricks (unless the Diamonds don't behave), and will get a ninth if West leads a black suit. If he doesn't, you can play a low Spade to the King, and later lead back to the Jack. If that doesn't work, you can try your luck in Clubs.

Your result so far:
Open Question
