mike777 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 4h I grant we may miss a slam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mck4711 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 IMO this hand is too strong for a direct 4♠. In case you play in this sequence 4♦ as "fit-jump" - promising 4+ ♠, good ♦-suit and high offense-defense-ratio - then this would be my choice.Lacking this I would go for 4♥: slam interest, either with a strong hand or with ♠-support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggwhiz Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 I would force to game over 1♠ - pass so 4♥ it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If partner doesn't understand this, he has a lot to learn, and this may be a good example. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenrexford Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 I like the fit non-jump take, especially as partner has room over 4♦ to bid 4♥ as another push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siegmund Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 I require two of the top three for my fit-jumps (and -non-jumps), so that leaves it as a coin toss between a light 4H and a heavy 4S. If you have less strict requirements for 4D, by all means bid that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P_Marlowe Posted October 25, 2011 Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Hi, I prefer 4H, since this takes away a 4H raise. With kind regardsMarlowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

han Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 4H looks better than 4D, even if we play that as fit non jump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
