Just to let BBO know: Daylight savings time has started on the West Coast too!
My partner a very good player wasdealt 6 clubs headed by A,K,Q and 5 Diamods headed by10,,xxxx. He had 2 singletons so a total of 9 points. He opened 1C and over my 1S replied 2 Ds.This issurely a reverse showing 16 Points. I had 16 also and started looking for a slam.Should he just have opened 1C and then rebid Cs?
if you bid 1nt oponents might lead a long minor and you go down so better bid 1spade and your partner will decide what further action to take
Question: If I open 1 minor (12-13 points) and partner says 1H and I have 4 fair spades ......
should I say the spades or can I jump over the spades and say 1NT (which I want). Am I obliged to mention the spades?
Marlyn Gilbert Cleveland, OH
Everything else being equal I would reply 1S. Partner would still bid up the line with 1H with a 44xx shape.
i m s.o who thinks that makes usually right opening of the boards according to given bids,but i m a simple player who has been playing over 45 years and still learning.it will be nice and helpful to improve my lead listening to one of the world's living best player.and this will be luck not only for me but also for many players at BBO.Thanks for that.
