“I will discuss many different bidding sequences and the students will be asked which bids are game forcing and which are non-forcing, so plenty of scope for interaction. We will also look at bids that are forcing for just one round.”
This lesson is suitable for improvers & intermediate players of all bidding systems, and is expected to last approximately 50 minutes.

Hi from Alberta Canada

[@helenpearce9858]

I hope you can answer my question please. I overcalled 2 clubs (A,Qc and four others and 10 points) after the RH opps opened 1s. the next person bid 2 d and the RH opps bid 2H, my partner bid 3 c. The opps then went 3s. So we gave up. It was my lead. I led a small club and the opps hand went down with the Kc and 2 smaller clubs. They played a small club and my partner put the Jack c on it and won the trick. I have found that this usually works when my partner was bidding clubs and winning the trick when they don't put the K on. My partner played another club back. The opps trumped it, so I put a small club on it.
When the King is in dummy with other smalaler clubs, do you think it is a good idea to lead back a club to take my ace and leave their K free or try or lead another suit that might lead to setting up a different suit, even if the opps (the one that trumped) has a second club.
Thank you in advance
Cheers
Eliza

is this a regular schedule so i can watch it live?

[@bevstanton4572]

This is super

[@mariaelenipan4307]

Great class. Just a question: playing second negative after a 2c opening, (2c-2d-3c) am I allowed to pass openers rebid?
Marlen from Greece

[@jackstockenbridge8841]

No Maria. The only time you can pass a 2C opener is if opener rebids 2NT and responder has 0 or 1 point

[@chanaprosser]

I was taught that for a waiting bid one must have 3 points or a king, otherw
ise bid
2H
