What do you bid in bridge if partner has opened 1H and you hold S-AQ9 H-KQJ4 D-QJ7 C-J76?
You should force your partnership to 4 Hearts, using this logic: You have 4 cards in hearts (a major suit) so you know you have at least an 8 card fit. You hold 16 points, so you know your hands have a combined valued of at least 28 points. You need 25+ points to bid for "game" in a major suit, which will give your side a "game bonus". Experienced players would make a strength-showing bid first (like 2 Clubs, or a conventional bid like Jacoby 2NT) and then bid 4 Hearts*. *A direct raise to 4 Hearts shows a weak hand with many hearts, which makes it hard for the opponents to enter the auction. For example: ♠3 ♥KQ983 ♣T943 ♦986
