Kaitlyn S Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 I want to mastermind and bid 4H but if they compete partner needs to know about spades so I bid 4S and let partner help in the decision over 5C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulg Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 In the past I'd have worried about many things: should I splinter, should I try to play in hearts since the suit is semi-solid, should I protect the king of diamonds? Now I just bid 4♠. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tramticket Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 4 spades. I have an ace-less hand. I'm happy enough in game unless partner makes a try. And I'm giving partner good information if the opponents compete further. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1 Posted December 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 4♠ was the popular recommendation At the table, the call chosen was 4♥. Defenders defeated this with a ♠ ruff when 4♠ would have made easily. 4♥ was an attempt to protect the ♦ holding and doesn't seem so bad to me.
