jocdelevat Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Suppose your opponrents play 3nt and you have king and queen of spades without any guard how you signal to your pard that you have both. My pard led spade after a lot of tricks and spade was never played what you play q or k? I suppose you signal before however in a pick up pard carding not always works. Thank you in advance for your advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Great great questionI am sure you will get many decent answersCheck out "obvious shift" This goes back to trick one.....should partner continue suit or try and find your suit?

ohioply Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 my parter and i play laventhol discards--they're nice for this...basically at your first discard you throw the suit you don't want--high one means higher of the two other suits low one means lower of the two So if Op is running diamonds and you want a spade you would throw either a high heart or a high club (whichever you didnt want) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the obvious shift principle should be a topic for discussion in this forum. Sometimes the "obvious" is far from obvious. Look at the hand as a whole and listen to the bidding to try and work out the best defence to the hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
