han Posted July 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2005 Why not play that 1NT rebid of 4♥ shows this hand, whereas 2♥ rebid of 4♥ shows a hand that has more values. Fred: "Another reason to force to game is that you might have a slam. It will be hard for partner to picture a hand with this playing strength if you fail to make a 2/1" Given that slam is good opposite as little as Axxxxx Kx xx AJx, I think that you should bid 2H followed by 3H with the original hand. This is truly an excellent hand, you expect to have some shot at game with almost anything that partner will produce, and you can have a slam opposite a good fitting minimum. I think that asdfg2k gave a good hand for the auction 1S-1NT-2X-4H (better hope that partner does not rebid 3D!). I think that 1S-2H-..-4H should be a little better, but should still be a very minimal hand, where 4H is a bit of a gamble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
