Playing Matchpoints. The Opponents are vulnerable and you are not vulnerable.
Here is your hand:
♠AJ4
♥654
♦8
♣KQT972
Your RHO (Right Hand Opponent) says "Pass". What is your call?
Show Answer
How about "Pass"?
You could try opening the bidding 3♣ but the problem is PARTNER might have the nice hand. You might mess up Partner.
If you opened 3♣ Partner will probably let you play it there. You can take 10 tricks in ♣.
If you "Pass" Partner will open the bidding. Now you can show your ♣ and also show you have 10 or more HCP.
Partner will end up bidding (and making!) 3NT because now Partner knows you are not just a weak hand with ♣.
