♠73
♥KQJT872
♦A
♣AQ6

Not vulnerable against vulnerable opponents. Dealer (to your right) opens 1NT (15-17). You play DONT. How do you bid this?


I forgot to add you-re playing a butler tournament.

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

Besides playing for fun, most people also like to play bridge to win

4♥. Need one usefull card.

I'll double a possible 4♠, showing that 4♥ was bid to win.

Dbl followed by 3♥ shows this hand.

I won't object to 4♥ or to pass.

Double. I'll decide what to do later. The only sure thing is that I'll pass if redouble comes back.

Pass at these colors. I don't think they're running 6 spades and the A♥ before going down at least 3. If they were NV, I'd double and bid 3♥ I think in the given methods.

No but when they knock out the ♦A, you'll only take 6 hearts and two bullets, so it will be -2.

Still passing and competing later in hearts looks like a good plan.

In my younger days I psyched a natural 2♦ overcall with a similar hand and got to defend 3N xx'd. Yum.
