In our two previous articles wo discussed the various types of
Following original bids. some example hands showing how to apply thena bids:
Spades-A J xxx Hearts-x x Diamonds~A K xx Clubs-x x
are
This hand contains a biddable four-card suit and a biddable five- card suit-also three defensive tricks, therefore the original bid is one, and as there are two suits, the four-card sult should be bid first. The opening bid would be one diamond, and on the second
bidding round of
the spades should be shown. Partner could thon count the hand for four dia- monds and five spades.
Spades K 10 x Hearts-Q Jx Diamonds-A Q x x Club»-Q 10 x
The above hand, under the pitch senie, will count 15. There is also a four-card biddable suit. While the 'writer prefers to open the hand with one diamond-the biddable uit- there is no objec tion to opening this type of hand with an original one no trump bid, but the approach method is anfer.
Spades—A J x
Hearts Q Diamond-AKxx Clubs-Q J 10
The above hand contains a bit; dable four-cnrd suit, but it also contains four and one-half quick tricks with all four suits stopped. It is not strong enough to make a foreing two-diamond bid and is too strong to bid one diamond on, therefore the best original bid in the hand is two no trump, which does not deny holding a biddable four-card suit, but shows partner a strong hand with all four suits stopped.
Spades- QJ 10 9 x x
Hearts-A K
Diamonds~A Q x Clubs-A Q
While the above hand is very powerful, it contains more than three Jusing cards, but with one ineard in partner's hand the prob- ability of going game is almost certain, therefore with this type of hand the original bid should be three spades, asking partner to go to four with une incard.
Spades--A. K Q x x x x Hearts--x
Diamonds X X Clubs-A x x
While this hand if played at spades will take eight tricks, defensively all it can be counted on for is the nce of clubs and maybe one spade trick, therefore the opening bid with this type of hand, should be a pre-emptive bid of four spades.
