BRIDGE TIPS from MARJORIE MICHELIN GRAND LIFE MASTER

Simple Spiral Spiral is  a  bridge  convention  that  is  used  when  you  and  partner  have  an  auction  that   starts  with  1  of  a  minor  –  1  of  a  Major  -­‐  2  of  the  Major.  It  has  many  variations  and   names.  As  in  most  situations,  it  is  important  that  you  and  your  partner  agree  to  play  it   the  same  way!     Many  partnerships  have  a  steadfast  rule  that  when  you  raise  partner’s  major  suit  after   you  open  a  minor,  you  promise  4.  We  would  all  like  to  have  4  but  sometimes  we  have  a   hand  that  does  not  have  a  suitable  rebid  other  than  a  raise  of  the  major.   Reasons  for  your  decision  to  raise  on  3  card  support:     1. 2 of the major would rate to be a better part score 2. I don’t have a better alternative 3. Encouragement in the Major may be the fast track to a possible game. Example, you hold:    ♠ K64  ♥ 32  ♦ Q65    ♣ AKJ32          

You  open  1♣  and  partner  bids  1♠.  You  have  good  playing  strength  for  spades  and  a  hole  in  hearts  for   bidding  1NT.  You  raise  to  2♠.   You  have  a  good  side  suit,  you  have  a  ruffing  value  and  partner  can  judge  if  you  have  a  double  fit,  a  bid   of  2♣  does  not  seem  forward  going.  

Spiral  is  an  ASKING  BID.  Responder  asks  Opener  if  they  have  3  or  4  card  support,   minimum  or  maximum  in  order  to  place  the  contract  in  the  right  strain.  Partner  may   bid  3NT,  sign-­‐off  in  3  of  the  major,  bid  4  of  the  major  or  More!  You  can  no  longer  play   2NT  as  natural.     After  the  auction:  1m  -­‐1M  -­‐2M  (1♣  -­‐1♥  -­‐2♥)  2NT*  becomes  an  asking  bid.  The   responses  are  artificial  as  follows:       • With  3  card  support  and  a  minimum  hand  bid  3♣*   • With  3  card  support  and  a  maximum  hand  bid  3♦*   • With  4  card  support  and  a  minimum  hand  bid  3♥*   • With  4  card  support  and  a  maximum  hand  bid  3♠*
