Cyberyeti Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 Depends on what 3♥ shows and cue bidding style. If it's suit + non minimum then the answer is E, who needs little more than AKxxx, Axxx, xxx, x plus any other useful high card or an extra spade or heart, which if 3♥ is non minimum he's 99% certain to hold with worst case being a heart finesse.

( "good" 2nd suit, and shortness elsewhere ) - 3S ( waiting for more info )4C! ( shortness ) - 4NT(RKC; the "good" 2nd suit should guarantee a Ctrl at least )5C (0/3) - 5NT6S ( no K's ) - p - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I think you should still get there if you play regular Jacoby ( showing shortness, 3C! over 2NT! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted December 2, 2012 Report Share Posted December 2, 2012 They should know what 3♥ shows. If this is a second suit, West should show his heart control with 4 ♥. East never got to know about this feature. If 3 ♥ showed a good suit or a control, East should bid more with the minors covered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
