Responder's second bid

Stop or bid to game?

• Bid game if you and your partner have 24/25+
• If you're weak (6-9 points), bid as low as possible:
  • Without fit: 1NT
  • If bidding 1NT is not possible, then pass or choose a suit of partner you think plays best
• Invite if game is an option, but not sure yet:
  • Without fit: 2NT
  • With fit: 3 in suit of the fit

Trumps or No-trumps?

• Choose a trumpsuit with a fit or a long suit (6+)
• Choose a NT contract when you don't have a fit
