Bolution in, next fanuo. Solution to Previous Contract Problem Unfortunately. too many people: allow honours to influence their bidding. I presume that the majority of my readers, If they picked up a hand containing 150 Bangkok aces, immediately would open the clut bidding with at least one na trump, Colombe But this is not always correct. Galle
Take, for example, to-day's Hongkong band. South has no advantage in Howrah opening the contracting with one! no trump. He cannot possibly gain a trick by the opening load. Therefore, if he is to receive any benefit from the timing factor, his partner must play, the band at no Pired Deposits at Bates that may-be seenT trump.

You do not want to play the hand at no trump in the South. If it is to be your partner simply ducks the played at no trump, South wants first club and now he is sure to his partner, North, to be the de-make four spadu tricks, one heart, clarer.
Pass hearts, realizes that you are en-nerve and Undivided Profits .. Paas deavouring to throw the no trump
Therefore, the bidding should be opened with a sult, hoping that partner's response will be no trump. When North responits with a spade that does not help at all.
Now try to fill his weak spot for no trump. You hold the aco and king of diamonds and undoubtedly he was unable to bid no trump, duo to his weakness in diamonds. Therefore, you bid two diamonds. This is a contructive bid and 'there rever is much danger of partner passing.
