Q1 Answer

Bridge bidding scenario with East hand cards and bidding table.

1 SPADES

Your partner has doubled and you cannot pass as NORTH has passed. So bid your best suit giving preference to a major.

BACK

Q11 Answer

2 NO TRUMPS

You have 17 HCPs and should bid 2NT inviting to 3NT.

BACK

Q2 Answer

1 Club

You have 11 HCPs and 4 diamonds and 5 club cards. You can open under the rule of 20 (add the number of cards in 2 longest suits to HCP total and if >20 you can open). Clubs is your longest minor and you have no 5 card major, so open 1 Clubs.

Back

Q12 Answer

1 NO TRUMPS

As NORTH has passed and you have 9-11 HCPs, no 4 card major and a stopper in SOUTH's suit you should bid 1NT after your partner has DOUBLED.

Back

Q3 Answer

2 No Trumps

Your partner has overcalled and should have > 10 HCPs, 2 of top 3 honors in spades. You have stoppers in hearts and 13 points. This is enough to invite partner to game in 2 no trumps.

BACK

Q13 Answer

2 DIAMONDS

You have 10+HCPs your partner assumes that you have 4 hearts after their 1C bid. To tell them that you have 5 hearts you 'lie in a minor' by bidding 2D.
