pjs_ch Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I've been having debate with partners about what happens (no opponent bidding) after 1♥ - 1NT - 3♥ 1♠ - 1NT - 3♠and the question is when I bid 4♣ is that (a) a potential trump suit, or (b) a cue bid in support of partner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgoetze Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 Most likely cuebid, though it wouldn't hurt if you told us what 1NT shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 For me this would be a suit. To those advocating a cue bid, what do you, as responder, bid holding void xxx xxx KQJxxxxHow will you ever get to a club contract if you can't bid 4C naturally? Bid 5C?

mike777 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 cuebid! 1nt can be a very wide and good range for many with very long clubs and no support I need to pass or bid 5c to play. typical choice that 2/1 makes often..focus on majors or nt....at the expense of minor suits. This is an advantage strong club/relay systems have over 2/1 if the opp stay silent, which is seldom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
