  1. 1. Whats your bid



Recommended Posts

Probably 4. RHO appears to have solid clubs and a heart stopper and maybe a piece in spades and/or diamonds.

 

I played this today too in the Juniors tourney, but I skipped the hand at the analysis table.

4. Double could in principle be right, but if we do double we are basically just offering RHO a chance to play 3NTX if he likes his chances there or run to 4 otherwise. He knows more about the deal than we do. If 4 is too high, so be it, I can't sell anyway to something without having shown my support.

I bid 4.

 

From our hand, we can tell RHO probably has 7 solid clubs, and a heart card at the very least, this means we are (probably) not beating 3N more than one, and it may even make. I think 4 is odds on, and if nothing else, will be a good save. I really hate the low doubleton in clubs, but partner will have a stiff a fair amount of the time.
