MarkDean Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 [hv=d=n&v=b&s=sa7hq4da954cakt98]133|100|Scoring: IMP[/hv] Partner opens, and is a not a light opener. 1♥ (2♠) 3♣ (P)4♣ (P) 4♦ (P)4♥ (P) ? Do you agree with the first two calls?What is your call now? If you bid 4♠, partner will bid 5♣, what now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerE Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I keycard for hearts, and then bid however many it seems like I can make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I would like to bid 5♥ over 5♣ to show the Queen, but I cannot. 5NT has no easy interpretation. I think it must be 5♠ now. Partner will have to bid 7 if he has ♥AK and ♦K (hopefully we have 13 tricks somehow). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOL Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 time for keycard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 I think finding ♥K after keycard will be impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiddity Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 I thought 4C set clubs as trump, and that 4H showed two of the top three heart honors. Am I completely off-base? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 If you had heart singleton would you want partner to tell you he's got the Ace or KQ?. 4♥ just shows ♥A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianshark Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 4♥ should show two top honours, having already bid the suit. I'm going to ask for specific Kings after keycard anyway just to be sure, but I reckon 7♣ has play if I find partner with the ♥K and maybe one outside K. Will also work if he has extra ♥s or the ♥J but no way to find out about those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dicklont Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 A grand is possible: xx AKJxx Kx Qxxx is not much to ask.RKC gives me 1 keycard: 5♣.I ask for the queen with 5♦, he shows her and 2 kings: 5NT.Now I realise that xx AKxxx Kxx Qxx is not quite a good grand. I settle for six and hope it makes. I could have bid that right away, couldn't I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keylime Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 5NT, pick a slam. That QH is a massive card. 6NT maybe in the offering as well. Disclaimer: Larry and I had a GAGGLE of 920's over the weekend, so I'm biased towards six of a minor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Just keycard and bid 7 if the keys are there. Even if pard hasn't got the ♥K, maybe we can finesse it. RHO is weakish, after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
