Lord Molyb Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 This shouldn't be interesting by now, yet 70% users on my webpage have made the wrong bid, I am a bit puzzled. Well, I'm not surprised it's that many considering you tell us that we've already bid 4NT :o 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 Come on. 4NT is a ridiculous bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasetb Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 I agree that 4NT is awful - after seeing both hands a LSGT in ♦ is best, but at the table I might choose a SSGT in ♥. If you choose 4NT, I bet that (1.) A few people won't realize that 5♥ DENIES the Q♠ and (2.) That the J♠ give the false impression that we don't need the Q♠ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 wtp with 4NT? are you going to stick to 4♠ if pard is disinterested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 I jus tput 4NT for simplicity, but it doesn't matter, whatever trial you make partner is gonna accept. And then you can bid 4NT, and then 70% of the users go to slam anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 My partner also bid 6♠ because he though it was a problem about an overtrick or soemthing, I suppose I have to get used of players not taking my problems as seriously as I'd wish.

whereagles Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 don't blame me.. i bid 5♠ :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmnka447 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 I also bid 5 ♠. You have to be missing an A and the trump Q. You don't know much about partner's hand except it's at least 5-4. If the opponent's find their A on the opening lead, then the slam requires no trump losers. That will probably require the ♠ finesse to work. Even if they don't find the A, you'll still need to get rid of the losers in the aceless suit or else you're back to needing no trump losers. You can't ever know if partner's hand has the right cards to eliminate those losers. If you don't know, don't go!! The only places you might even consider bidding slam is if you're way behind in an IMP match and need to create swings, or, possibly to take a wild shot at a top in MP.
