iandayre Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Playing MP I held A, AKQx, AKQJxxx, x and had a 3S opener on my left, P, P to me. I looked for an explanation of a 4NT call by me, and nothing came up. Tried the call anyway, all pass of course. I guess if there is no Blackwood I have to just bid 6D but would seem silly if partner had the CA and I didn't look for it. Postscript after checking the results: One player jumped to 6NT with my hand. The bot on lead with the AK of clubs led a Spade!!!!!!!!! Perhaps I should suck it up and start trying to find a live partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1eyedjack Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 one of the bizarre aspects is that 3S pre-emptor had C:AK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antrax Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 I think 4♠ by you is any strong two-suited hand. I could never figure out the continuations though. GIB would bid something like 5♣ with the explanation saying "forced" and then you're again at a loss whether to bid 6 or correct or pass or what.
