CONVENTIONS continued
Hand A has a seven-card spade suit and
falls into thj 5-9 HCP range expected
of a three-level opening. However, with
a weak suit and defensive cards
outside, you are likely to lead partner
astray if he has a decent hand, so you
sould Pass.
Hand B is a classic pre-empt: a decent
seven-card suit and no defensive values
outside. Whatever happens next, partner
will be well placed to judge the
subsequent auction if you open 3S.
