gnasher Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I think it's a very strong club-major two-suiter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONEferBRID Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Asking for Specific Aces. Here is a simpler version than the Pinpoint Blackwood that I've posted before: 5C = no aces5D/H/S = shows the ace in the bid suit5NT = club ace6C = any two aces - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Edit... addition:Over 3minor preempt :4C ( always) = 2-suiter, other minor and a major, 4D asks for Major.4D ( always ) = both majors4M = long Major, to play.

Jlall Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I think it's a very strong club-major two-suiter. Thats what I said when I was asked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TylerE Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Ugh, I read the opeing as 3♥, not 3♦...yea def ♣ + major Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dake50 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 What would 4D Q-bid show or start showing? Now, what is left to 4N? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 What would 4D Q-bid show or start showing? Now, what is left to 4N? 4♦ would show both majors.That's why 4NT would show a M♣ 2-suiter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Unless playing 4♣ as two-suited, I think 4♦ should include diamond-major two-suiters, just not the very strong ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 My answer (same as in another forum) is that it shows a hand that does not want to Dbl despite being strong. When I sort out why there was no Double then I can logically conclude it is a two suiter with clubs and hearts. With hearts and spades, 4D works fine. With spades and clubs, hmm.

kgr Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 I play:4♣=♣ and Major4♦=Both majors4NT= Not Defined. If my partner bids this then I would take it as a very strong 2-Suiter (Like 2 or 3 loosers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
