The second round of
Northern Bridge League matches on 19th August produced a lot of
interesting deals.
Here is a bidding problem.
Game All IMPs Dealer West
You
are playing a strong notrump system, so 2NT shows 12-14 balanced.
What do you bid now? Partner may have had
no option but to bid 2NT with an inadequate spade stop, or even no
spade stop at all. So three spades is the recommended bid, asking
partner if he has a decent spade stop to bid three notrump or otherwise
to bid something
else.
In the event partner held 9765, K96, AK96, A4 so he would bid four clubs and at least five clubs would be reached, though bidding the slam is quite tough. |
