gszes Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 agree with all other posters so far and feel it is such a nice simple andperfectly understandable bid that there is no other preferred meaning needed.how else to bid something like AKQJ AKxxxx void xx?

Zelandakh Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 It depends who your partner is! If playing with an expert partner then asking for a control in the opps' suit would be my expectation. If playing in the Acol Club with a pick-up it would almost certainly be a simple invite.

silvr bull Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 There is lots of space between 2♥ and 5♥, so partner can "ask" about a ♣ control by making strong que bids. I would treat the jump to 5♥ as asking about ♥s. I would expect North's jump to 5♥ to be a hand like AKQJx Jxxxx void AQJ. Granted that does not leave many high card points for the opps to bid, but that limitation does not seem to influence the BBO opps I play against. :D If I was South and I had ♥Axxx or ♥Kxxx, I would bid 6♥. If I had ♥AKxx, I would bid 7♥! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
