My first hand of the night: 15 hcp, six spades, one void ♦️. My right hand opponent opened bidding with a pass.
- Pass
- 2♠️ – me
- P
- 3♠️
- P
- 4♠️ – me
We ended up, making 11 total tricks. Did I open correctly? Is this hand possible for a 12 tricks? How could we bid better?
Ira: You opened short of a true strong two opening. Your partner’s first response should have been 4C , asking for aces bc of partner’s point count. You would have been in small slam. Probably 6S
If partner responds 5C, it means you have all the aces and is asking for kings.
