y66 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Matchpoints. Txx Ax KTxxx Qxx Pard opens 1H, you bid 1N, pard bids 2D. Now what? Is this close? Edit after TimG's post: 1N = semi-forcing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimG Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I think it might matter whether 1N is forcing. If 1NT was not forcing, this is a super max and would probably qualify for a 2S bid. If 1NT was forcing, I still have a good hand, but not a super max; I would bid 3D. None of this should preclude playing in hearts since opener will often bid 3H next with a 64 hand.

rogerclee Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 3D, not good enough for 2S imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I have a very slight preference for 2♠ showing a good minor suit raise, but certainly won't quarrel with 3♦ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dicklont Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I'm happy to bid 3♦.Partner will probably pass, and then we're in an OK spot.When he bids 3NT, he has good chances to make it. The ♠10 might even be helpfull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 2♠ for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
han Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 I'd bid 2S with 10xx Qx K10xxx Axx but not with this hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
