OtCen the responding nanQ is
fairly strong, but the lack of
two tricks necessitates response
of one diamond to the opening bid
of one club. The denial of high
cards must be made on the first
round, but the nature of the hand
can be readily disclosed on the
second round of bidding. Thus
should the bidding go: South, one
club; North, one diamond; South,
one heart; North, holding spades,
@ j 10 4 3 2; hearts, 2; diamonds,
K 10 Q: clubs, K 2, should now
bid two or three spades. This re-
Spouse is not absolutely forcing, but
the opening club bidder will not pass
If he can find another bid with his
holdings.
In this situation, a bid Of two
spades would indicate q possible
choice Of subsequent bids, as we'll
as a hand with which the bid Of
one diamond indicated a maxi
mum pass, or possibly a two
suited hand and the desire for an
opportunity to disclose the other
suit. With the example given
above, the responding hand, for
instance, could play no trump If
partner could not support a spade
suit.
A bid of three spades over me

show a hand of strong promise,

hand holds spades, K @ 8 8 6;

does not suit his holdings.
This bidding is entirely logical
The bid of one club indicates {
hand of an aggressive nature, with
one weakness, but offering a choic'
of final game bids. 1t is fairly i'm
probable that the opening bid o
one club has been made on hant
which cannot support either major
but even II 1t has, then the opening
bidder can take care Of his OWL
