This Week's Questions

















 



Weak Two Interference?  
Q    Partner opens 2S weak, and the next player bids 3C. If I bid 3H is it Forcing?
A    Yes, you should play this as Forcing. You have to have some way to make partner bid again. Otherwise you could jump to 4H or raise partner in their suit to let them off the hook.

My Suit or Partner's  
Q    I open the bidding with 1C, (5 good ones) and my partner bids 1 Heart. I have 3 Hearts - A x x. Should I rebid my clubs or support their hearts? Thank you.
A    You should raise to 2 Hearts. Change the Ace to the Queen and you should look for another bid to make. Partner is only promising 4 Hearts right now so you need good support. Some partnerships only raise with 4 card support.

Always Transfer  
Q    Partner opens 1NT. Should I transfer with a 5 card major and a balanced hand?   Frank in NC
A    Yes you should. Partner must have at least 2 of your suit (maybe more) to open 1NT. Together you have a 7 card suit. 1 more and you'd have the 8 card fit you're always trying to find. With a 5 card suit, you must have a doubleton somewhere. If you and partner both have a doubleton in the same suit then the opponents have a 9 card suit! Very bad for NoTrump.
