I think it should pass almost all hands without fit here, unless having good suit to show, rather than bidding 1nt in live auction vul where opps are unlimited and nobody may have a fit.

I think someone wrote in the bridge bulletin that "only perverts (voluntarily) rebid five card suits"--what does this make N? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
