tigerR made an excellent first lead facing a 1nt contract. with a suit ace, king, queen, *,* and dummy is Jack, 9, 8, *, he placed a fourth card. his partner won surprisingly with a 10.

good imagination and judgement, tiger!!

Thanks in advance

i think 4nt must be blackwood or rkc.

if responder wants a nt contract and just need your information of high limit or not, no need to bid 2c. no use and expose declarerès hand.

this is my opinion.

SAYC or natural, the 4NT is invitation for 6NT.

The partner has a hand with 4 Spades and no more than 3 Hearts, seeking for 4-4 spade match while bidding 2C.

Never 4NT blackwood after 1NT. 4C Gerber is more natural and not confusing.

My 2 cents.

I don't like your word about Zhu, FM Chen and Weir, which simply making a whole bunch of people plus myself feel disappointed. You can say they are ur good teacher, but not necessary the way you put it. Theoretically or practically, there are many more equally fantastic players. We can readily list out some of them, Qu, XieXie, Bill Ding, Lao Xi, ChinaStory - forgive my boasting, Li Jianting, Hu Yang couple, TigerR, Y123, Yu Gong, iebuz ...

It is fine that you love bridge game and like to be part of us, a freely organized bridge society without any type of bureaucratics, which means nobody is representing any one else. Then we are able to continue our fun with all being around.

You don't have to feel upset if any after I put forth this poster. And next time if you want to come out something, please be more event or game result concentrated, not people oriented.
Sounds OK ?

Hi Lao Xi ---

To my understanding, 4nt bid means quantitive with H suit being fit. 2H responsive bid after 2c asking bid does not necessarily exclude S suit. 4C bid means Gerber.

Correct me if I am wrong.
