mr1303 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 1H. Followed by repeated spade bids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbaptistec Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 1♥ for now.Then over the expected 1NT, 2♣ or 2♦, bidding 2♠ will strongly suggest this shape (with 5-5 you would have first bid 1♠, and you will not be often bidding 2♠ now with 4-5) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yin970902 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 yes,thank you!I think responding reverse need less than opening bid.then 1♦ --1♥1NT/2♣/2d --2♠can be more descriptive easily than 1♠ then 2♥,3♥. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggwhiz Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Yes and the best thing that can happen is that after 1♥, pard bids 1♠. You are in better shape to try for a light shapely slam than if you had bid 1♠ and got a simple raise. Meanwhile a simple raise of hearts could also put you in the slam try zone.

dkham Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Agree 1♥ then spades. Think some play a responding reverse does show an opening bid though (which is fine here). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perko90 Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 1♥. Agree, responder's reverse should be game forcing, and as mentioned, this hand is strong enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keylime Posted July 11, 2012 Report Share Posted July 11, 2012 1♥ clearcut. You are well placed for any rebid: If pard rebids 1S, game is almost definite.If pard rebids 1NT, just bid a natural and forcing 2♠If pard rebids 2C, bid carefully. There maybe a misfit. If pard rebids 2D, also bid carefully.If pard does anything else....think about slam and how to bid your hand out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yu18772 Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 1♦-1♥2♣-2♠ is 4th suit forcing and not responders reverse, you will be able to show spades only when you bid 3♠ over the expected partners 2NT/3♣ or 3♦. http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gifYu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
