quikwal Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 Frist hand Second hand My question is how would the partners bid these hands to arrive at 7NT other than just gambling that they have the right cards?

hrothgar Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 The grand slam would appear to require either being able to place the Queen Jack of hearts in hand A OR knowing that hand B has a 4 card heart suit. I think that it would be difficult to reliably reach 7 for many, perhaps most partnerships. Good hand for relays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 To make this easier for people [hv=pc=n&s=sa74hak64dat7cqj6&n=skq5hqj7dj3cakt94]133|200[/hv] You give no indication of who dealt The key is to impart the info that N actually has a 5 card club suit, so S can agree clubs, then allow N to blackwood and find out S has 3+Q♣+K♥. Playing weak NT starting from N for example: 1♣(4+)-1♥1N(15-17)-2♣(art ask)3♣(top end 5♣)-3♦(stop initially, cue when he goes past 3N)3♥(3 card support)-3♠(looking for stop, cue when he goes past 3N)3N-4♣4♦(keycard)-4♥(0/3)4♠(Q♣?)-5♥(yes and K♥)7N(can count 13) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have a chance if you open 1♣ with the S hand and get an inverted raise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo1201 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Yep, agree with inverted raises: 1C - 2C (11+, 5+ clubs)3NT (18-19 bal with stoppers and only 3 clubs) - 4C (start cueing pls)4D (cue) - 4NT (he stops H and I have QJ so we don't have 2 H losers)5C (3 kc) - 5D (queen?)5H (yes plus HK) - ? Now you have to hope partner has 4H or sth good happens to the 13th S, partner being supposedly 4423 or (43)33 and shouldn't have 4D's. I dunno how to ask this...
