kgr Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 3♣=6c♣; intermediate (10-15 HCP)From our system: "Fit-bid: When opps compete then we play for responder splinters in suits promised by the opps and fit-bids in other suits. A jump by Opener in competition is a splinter."It says nothing about advancer. (1♠)-3♣-(Pass)-4♦=> Is it best to have 4♦ here as fit-bid or as splinter?=> ...and 5♦?

TWO4BRIDGE Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 3♣=6c♣; intermediate (10-15 HCP)From our system: "Fit-bid: When opps compete then we play for responder splinters in suits promised by the opps and fit-bids in other suits. A jump by Opener in competition is a splinter."It says nothing about advancer. (1♠)-3♣-(Pass)-4♦=> Is it best to have 4♦ here as fit-bid or as splinter?=> ...and 5♦? I have in my files ( sorry, no link ) from 2004 regarding Rubens Transfer Advances . He defines the following "Jumps" by Advancer : a ) A jump-shift is a fit-bid in support of overcaller's suit...... ( 1C ) - 1H - ( p ) - 2S/3D = fit-showing-jumps b ) A jump-cue-bid to the 3-level ( ie. a single-jump ) shows the values for a constructive raise ( 7-9 hcp) with four or more trumps. ...... ( 1C ) - 1H - ( p ) - 3C! c ) A jump-cue-bid to the 4-level ( ie. a double-jump ) shows shortness, support and a slam try ... 4+ trumps ...... ( 1C ) - 1H - ( p ) - 4C! = splinter . - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - kgr : Now, regarding your auction, if the overcall were 2C, then 3D would be a fit-showing jump and 4D would be a splinter.But, since your overcall is 3C [ 6c♣; intermediate (10-15 HCP) ] , you may have to redefine to whatever you agree with partner .
