Bidding Quiz # 12
Shutout-Suit Responses to a Major Opening


Matchpoints, neither side vulnerable, the bidding has gone:
SOUTH
WEST
NORTH
EAST
--
--
1 H
Pass
?


The Eastern Scientific approach in general, and 1984 Bridge World Standard
in particular, produce difficulties for responder with a long suit lower in rank
than the opening bid. If partner's opening is a major, you cannot bid your suit
directly without forcing to game unless you plan to rebid it. Sometimes,
you can hope to back into your suit by responding one notrump, forcing, hoping
opener will name it (possibly with a three-card holding). Often, however, you
cannot show both your long suit and game-invitational strength after
responding one notrump.

As South, what call do you make with each of the following:

(a) Q 8 6 3 5 K 10 4 Q 10 8 7 2

(b) Q 8 6 3 5 10 4 A Q 8 7 4 2

(c) Q 8 6 3 5 K 10 A Q 8 7 4 2

(d) K 10 5 Q 8 6 3 A Q 8 7 4 2

(e) Q 8 6 3 5 A Q A Q 8 7 4 2

(f) Q 8 6 5 3 5 A Q A Q 8 7 4

(Solutions posted with next set of questions, approximately the fifteenth
of the next odd-numbered month. To see the solutions, when posted, click here.)
