This places you in the respond- ing position. ‘i If your right-hand oppo- nent passes, you should bid if you have at least six. points. ‘The bid you select will give your partner the first clue to the distribution and strength of _ your hand. Order of Choice: 1) Change the suit (show your own suit). 7 ' 2) Assist partner's suit (raise). ‘ 3) No Trump (last choice). Raising your Partner's Major Suit SINGLE RAISES — (poor hand) six to nine points and three or more cards in partner's suit. DOUBLE RAISES — (strong hand) 13 to 15 points and at least three trump cards to the Queen. This raise signals at least a game should be reached (26 points in combined hands). TRIPLE RAISES — (weak freak hand) five “or more trumps, a short suit and less than nine high card points. This jump bid from one spade or heart to four by you will tell your partner about your hand type and it will destroy the ability of your opponents to find out much about each other's hands. Counting Distribution — Short suits in the responding” hand are worth more when raising partner's suit than when bidding a new suit. Beat Singleton = three dis might hold in their hand so use Doubleton = one distribution point In responding hand, the honors in partner's suit, are- worth a little extra. Add one point extra for the King or Queen or Jack when the honor is with additional small cards, or the Queen, Jack combina- tion. Tf your honor cards in the trump suit don't add up to four points, give: your trump. suit.’ honor card one point more. Hf partner opens a minor, that promises only three cards in the minor. suit (diamonds or clubs). Again, with six-or more points, you are compelled ‘to respond if right-hand opponent passes. Ifyou raise partner's minor suit, you should have five cards. in that suit and no four-card suit above the one bid. If one diamond is partner's opening bid and you respond two diamonds, your response says “partner, I don't have four hearts or four spades, but five diamonds and a poor hand.” vxX xxx @AQXXX 3 BIxx Tf partner. opens one. dia- mond and you have six to nine points and no four-card major and not five diamonds, respond one no-trump: _ vxXX OXXX AQxx &IXX points ‘your ‘oid = five distribution points Your partner's ‘opening bid gives youa picture of what they For Sale by Tender The Ministry of Lands, Parks and Housing invites of- fers to purchase by way of sealed tender of three modular student housing units located at Selkirk College, Castlegar, B.C.
