Quiz 105

First Answer

You are 3rd seat, both vulnerable.

Are you strong enough to respond two hearts (game forcing), or should you respond one notrump (semi-forcing)? Your Queen of spades is a very favorable card, and you have very good spot cards, so it’s possible that you and partner might have a game. That said, it won’t be surprising if one or both of your minor-suit face cards turn out to be worthless or nearly worthless. We don’t see this hand as being quite strong enough for a game forcing two heart response, but we would not criticize any partner of ours who chose that call.

Say that you respond one notrump. West bids two diamonds, partner passes, and RHO passes.
