My partner and I had an interesting hand at this week's bridge session and we were wondering how it should be bid. We were vulnerable against not. East deals and has: S: Q H: J93 D: JT8764 C: 865 West holds: S: AK63 H: AKQ6 D: K C: AK97 Our west opened 2C and, after a 2D response found himself with an awkward rebid. We eventually played in 4H, making, after the following auction: Pass 2C 2D 2H 4H but I am wondering what the is the recommended way of dealing with strong 4441 hands? Any thoughts would be welcome. Also, would your answer change if we replaced the DK with Dx? What if we also replaced S6 with SQ, say? Thanks, Paul
