whereagles Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 KQJ. Weak hands with long suits play in the long suit. I learned it in Cardiff 1996 :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted September 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 3♦? 5♦? double? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 At least 3♦, of course. Must shut out the heart suit. If you can't bid 3 or 4♦ because that's a fit bid or splinter, then bid 5 I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerclee Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 I would just bid 5D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggwhiz Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 5♦ Late spade losers can disappear on round suit stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pooltuna Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 9xxxKQJ98xxxx opps are vul, partner is dealer 1♠-(2♣)-?? something weird might work....make a negative double and then bid ♦/♥. You do have ♠ protection if worst comes to worst :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayin801 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 KQJ5. KQJ94? 5♦ KQJ983? (Is this abuse of the system?) 5♦ and I would love it even more if I were playing a limited opening system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Is 5D not Exclusion? (Would bid it otherwise) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 I guess KQJ5 means KQJ and five small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLOGIC Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Is 5D not Exclusion? (Would bid it otherwise) jumps to game in a suit you can still hold extreme length in should not be anything other than natural (except 1S p 4H maybe and that ones debatable).

Siegmund Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 There's no law against playing fit-jumps in competition. :) (And didn't we agree that the KQJ5 notation just confused people, when we had a thread about it? I was expecting the standard "1S or 2H in response to 1H, with a weak hand and a good 4-card spade suit" question...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 There's no law against playing fit-jumps in competition. :) (And didn't we agree that the KQJ5 notation just confused people, when we had a thread about it? I was expecting the standard "1S or 2H in response to 1H, with a weak hand and a good 4-card spade suit" question...) Yeah, but when fit-jumping you need a 4th trump. If partner has a few small ♣s and opps start leading this suit from the top, you lose control completely with only 3 trumps. KQJ983 for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 I guess KQJ5 means KQJ and five small. Who knows Nuno. Whatever it is a silly notation. This is the person who criticised s/t for singleton. roflmao. 5D for me by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nige1 Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 ♠ 9xx ♥ x ♦ KQJ98xxx ♣ xopps are vul, partner is dealer1♠-(2♣)-??IMO 5♦ = 10, 2♦ = 9, 3/4♦ (fit jumps) = 4, _P = 3, 2♠ = 2, _X = 1 Not a success when partner turns up with ♠ AKxxx ♥ Jxx ♦- ♣ AQxxxBut such are the vicissitudes of life :D Fit jumps can help partner in a competitive auction but normally show better support and on this hand you want to play in ♦ not ♠. Double is misdescriptive and masochistic: how do you rate 2♣X when partner holds ♠ AKxxx ♥ Qx ♦ xx ♣ AKxx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
