Card play lesson and bidding dilemma in no trump game
In a bridge hand Sersehe and South reach four no trump after a king of clubs lead, North had rebid three no trump. The bidding sequence shows East South West North as 1C You South 2C. The problem asks what to do with AAKI7T6 in spades and five spades, suggesting a double or a bid, and notes that a jump overcall with a five card suit is usually bad. A sample question then asks how to respond when partner raises to two spades. The passage ends with a casual remark about why someone can’t do office work at home.
