P_Marlowe Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hi, The alternative is 4D, but 4S is fine as well. with kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrothgar Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 I really dislike 4♠. Once partner shows Spades, slam is a very real possibility. The right bid on this hand depends a lot on agreements. 4♦ is one (obvious) possibility. If you don't play splinters (or this hand is outside your range) then you need to make a forcing bid of some kind. 3♣ or some such...

TimG Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 You think that is right 4s? because no possible slam? Whatever the merits of 4S, it does not necessarily end the auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 4D, if Splinter is on the card. 4S shows a balanced 4-card raise and about 19HCP (for me). Failing to splinter denies the hand to splinter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricK Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 If we do splinter, is partner meant to cue-bid ♥ if he has a singleton there? If not (and I suspect not!) then we will miss a lot of very good slams even if we do splinter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
