Opening Suit Bits of Three In A Major.
by Ely Culbertson.
An Opening suit bid of three in a major is partly a strength- showing bid and partly a shutout) bid. Its chief characteristic ta} that the trump suit itself does not require adequate support from partner. It must necessarily in- clude at least 5 sure trump-tricks. and as a matter of general practice it usually includes more. In counting these playing-tricks the player should give honours their full values rather than the values assigned to them on a defensive hasis. For example, a combina- tion such is K J 10.9 8 7 is worth W. B. BAILEY & CO., LTD. 4% playing-tricks rather than only) Kowloon Bay. 4. This is obtained by giving| New Work & Repairs.
