Winstonm Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 fortunately for me, hands like this are systemically forbidden in all my partnerships. That's a great system - do you have a book out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flameous Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 4♣ is my bid, most of the time it's supposed to be cue for diamonds, but after some 4 level response (4♥ this case) 5♣ tells it's real suit. Then 6♣ seems somewhat clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whereagles Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 4C natural goes against all of my general partnership rules but I also don't see any reason why it should be artificial (since it's being bid after a minor which you can raise in a forcing manner below game). Agree to the natural meaning of 4♣, though I would be pessimistic on this one and settle for the relative underbid of 3NT after 3♦. Sure, opposite a good opener hand, it can even make 7(!!), but I think it's risky to try for a slam without methods that CLEARLY allow you to stop in 4NT if the slam try fails. Guess I'm getting old.. eheh. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
