♠ J-10-7-6 ♥ A-K-7-6 ♦ 9 ♣ J-5-4-2

This time you’re delighted that opener bid spades. You are happy to jump to 3♠ to invite, saying to your partner, “Maybe we have a game.”

FIVE IS NOT ENOUGH

After you respond 1NT, do not introduce a new suit with fewer than six cards.

If responder does not have a six-card suit, he should usually choose one of his partner’s suits.

West North East South

1♠ Pass 1NT

Pass 2♦ Pass ?

♠ 7 ♥ K-6-4-2 ♦ 10-9-7 ♣ K-J-9-8-3

Pass. Taking eight tricks will be hard enough with this misfit. Don’t try for nine by speculating in clubs. Inviting game with 2NT is totally out of the question.
