B. Answer-The correct bid is one
spade, since with a solid spade suit
a side ace and singleton your hand
shows definite slam possibilities if
your partner is fairly strong. An
opening bid of three or four spades
Is used to shut out the opponents
and definitely denies any slam pos
sibiities. ..,
Score 100 per cent for one spade,
go per cent for four spades, 40 per
cent for three spades, nothing for
any other bid CNote-If you want
to pre-empt, four spades is much
more likely to shut the opponents
out than three spades)
