Trinidad Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 I didn't say that HHx in spades was impossible. I did say that it was rare. Many methods in response to a weak two gear towards finding out: whether there is a side suit honorin which suit it is Note the use of the singular in the second part. Most weak twos have either 0 or 1 outside honors. It is possible to have 2, but it is so rare that common bidding methods don't allow for it. Here, we are not merely dealing with 2 outside honors (which in itself is rare but not impossible). No, these two honors:need to be in a three card suitandthey need to be in spadesandspades is the suit in which partner just has shown a good suit (presumably headed by a couple of honors and with length) This all together promotes something that is rare by itself to the status of "highly unlikely (but still not impossible)". In short: I would not sit and wait for the occasion of having a weak two with HHx in a suit that my partner has just advertised as a good suit.
