 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!

Question 1

  Your Hand
♠ A K J 5 2
♥ 7
♦ A Q 9 6 2
♣ K 4
 
Q: 1 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
?--


 Your choice:
A: 1♠ - Open the highest-ranked suit with a 5-5 two-suiter.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 2

  Your Hand
♠ A K J 5 2
♥ 7
♦ A Q 9 6 2
♣ K 4
 
Q: 2 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♠Pass1 NTPass
?


 Your choice:
A: 2♦ - You don't have enough strength for a jump, which would show game-going values.

If your partner has only 6 points, you don't necessarily have enough for game.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 3

  Your Hand
♠ A K J 5 2
♥ 7
♦ A Q 9 6 2
♣ K 4
 
Q: 3 - How many Spades does North have?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♠Pass1 NTPass
2♦Pass2♠


 Your choice:
A: 2 - If he had a Spade fit, he would have bid 2♠ on the first round. 2♠ merely shows preference; two cards and a weak hand.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ A K J 5 2
♥ 7
♦ A Q 9 6 2
♣ K 4
 
Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♠Pass1 NTPass
2♦Pass2♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 3♦ - Bidding your Diamonds again shows a maximum 5-5 two-suiter.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ A K J 5 2
♥ 7
♦ A Q 9 6 2
♣ K 4
 
Q: 5 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♠Pass1 NTPass
2♦Pass2♠Pass
3♦Pass3♠Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: Pass - Your partner knows what you have and he does not want to bid game. You shouldn't either.

Your partner's hand:
♠ Q 3
♥ Q 5 4 2
♦ J 3
♣ J 7 6 5 2

You will have to set up the Diamonds, but with the 10 missing, it's complicated. If you go to dummy with a Spade and the Diamond finesse loses, they will play a Spade back. It's probably better to start Diamonds from your hand.

If everything goes well, you could make 4♠, but you could also go down in 3♠.

Your result so far:
Open Question
