blackshoe Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 5♣. Since partner has bid ♠, my void there is not likely to be all that useful, so I'd not show it even if I've agreed methods to show a useful void. BTW, ♦ are trumps.

ArtK78 Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 I would not show my void even if I had a way to show it. But I would like to respond 6 Ace RKCB, since I have a known 2-suiter. I would show 4 key cards with the kings of both clubs and diamonds counting as key cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAce Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 [hv=pc=n&s=sha93dk8642cakq63&d=n&v=b&b=13&a=1dp3cp3sp4dp4np]133|200[/hv] 3C was a strong jump shift. 4NT is 0314 RKCB What say you here? Well, if you want to show your void; 4NT---6x (x < our trump) = x suit void and odd number of keycards 4NT---6 of our trump = odd number of keycards + a suit above trump is void4NT---5NT = even number of keycards + a void. So in this hand IF you want to show a void , you bid 6♦. But as they said, that will hardly matter because if pd knows what he is doing, he should have ♠ A and ♦A in order to ask 4NT. He definetely has ♥ control too, K or stiff. What matters will be ♦Q for him if he wants to go grand, i would just respond keycards if i were you.

Free Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 What an aweful 3♣ bid! Bleh! Now I wouldn't show my void, partner has values there so the void isn't "useful" imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurpoa Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 [hv=pc=n&s=sha93dk8642cakq63&d=n&v=b&b=13&a=1dp3cp3sp4dp4np]133|200[/hv] 3C was a strong jump shift. 4NT is 0314 RKCB What say you here? 3KC: 5♣. That is what you agreed with partner.....But I think, playing SAYC, 3♣ is wrong. I would have splintered: 3♠: partnership can now start a serie of control bidding, or whatever you agreed on a splinter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 1st point - if I'm not going to jump shift on these cards, with good 5 card support for partner, a side suit with a source of tricks and first round controls in all other suits, when are you going to jump shift? 2nd point This was partner's hand. We had a misunderstanding in bidding the grand, but bid it anyway. How would you bid it?[hv=pc=n&n=sak63h6daqj53c952]133|100[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 something that would work is 1♦-2♦-3♥-5NT (GSF) however this would miss some good grands if partner has ♦AJxxx Those who play exclusion will have a comfortable 1♦-2♦-3♥-5♠ bidding Now if you need to start with clubs it would go like this: 1♦-2♣2♦-3♠3NT-4♠ continuations depend on agreements.
