Bridge Problem 1
This week an opening bid problem for Christian Mart.
West deals,
East West vulnerable.
Maimood Mart Hamman Foawter
W N E S no bid ?
Mari holds the following:
♠ K
V 8 7 2
A K 6 5
♣ Q 10 9 8 3
He heard Zia Mahmood pass on his right. On the surface of it he has only a marginal opening bid, and no comfortable rebid if he commences proceedings by bidding 1+. Should he open the bidding, and if so, with what bid?
This is one of the problems analysed in the programme. Answer in next week's Radio Times.
Problem set by Barry Rigal.
