Game Try Bidding

Post by rod »

Here's Board 8 from last Wednesday's club game. I was South partnered with Hema, nobody vulnerable.

J106
2
♣ K5432

♠ 52
K9853
A976
♣ 76
♠ K9
AQ42
QJ1083
♣ 109

♠ AJ873

K54
♣ AQJ8


Bidding proceeded:

West

1NT
North

2♠
East

South
1♠

Our minor suits seem well positioned but the opponents are advertising about half the deck, so we'll need cards that fit well to make game. A 3♣ call fits the bill here, showing values in clubs. Partner with only 6 HCP but knowing his King is working has no trouble bidding 4♠. That was worth 70% of the matchpoints.
