Following original bids, Home example hands showing how to apply these bids:
Spades A J x x x Hearts-x x Diamonds-AK x x Clubs x x
This hand contains a biddable four-card suit and a biddable five- card suit-also three defensiva tricks, therefore the original bid is one, and as there are two suite. the four-card suit should be bid first. The opening bid would be one diamond, and on the second round of
the bidding
spades should be shown. Partner could then count the hand for. four dia- monds and five sondes.
Spades-K 10 x Hearts-QJx
Diamonds-A Q x x Clabs-Q 10 x
The above hand, under the pitch scale, will count 15. There is also four-eard biddubte auit. While the writer prefers to open the hand with one dinmond--the biddable suit-there is no objec tion to opening this type of hand with an original one no trump hid, but the approach method is wafer.

bid-
The above and contains dable four-card suit, but it also conlains four and one-half quick tricks with all four suits stopped. It is not strong enough to make a forcing two-diamond hid and is too strong to bid one diamond on. therefore the best original, bid in the hand is two no trump, which dors not deny holding a biddable four-card suit, but shows partner a strong hand with all four suits stopped.
Spades-Q J 109 x x Hearts-A K
Diamonds-A Q x Club-A Q
While the above hand is very powerful. It contains more than three losing cards, but with one Incard in partner's hand the prob allity of going game is almost eerlain, therefore with this type of hand the original bid should be three spades, asking partner to go to four with one incard."
Spades-AK 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 ace 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.
