Deal 5 |
♠ ♥ ♦ ♣ |
You dealt this hand. What do you bid? This is the one situation when you open a 3-card ♦ suit; two 4-card Majors, three ♦s and two ♣s, but not enough strength to open 1NT. Partner responds 2NT. What do you bid? |

♠ Q 7 3 ♥ K 10 3 ♦ K 10 4 ♣ A Q 10 2 |
You dealt this hand. What do you bid? This is the one situation when you open a 3-card ♦ suit; two 4-card Majors, three ♦s and two ♣s, but not enough strength to open 1NT. Partner responds 2NT. What do you bid? Partner's bid shows 13-16 points, balanced. And most importantly, it denies holding a 4-card Major suit. So you do not consider bidding either your ♥s or ♠s, but just bid 3NT.
