♠AK2
♥K9
♦AKJ6
♣JT82
Partner is Dealer and says "Pass". Your RHO (Right Hand Opponent) says "Pass". What is your call?
Show Answer
1♦.
You should not open the bidding 1NT. You have 19 HCP (High Card Points) and bidding 1NT shows 17 HCP at the very most.
Since you do not have a 5 card major you must open your longest minor. Generally with three cards in both minors you open 1♣ and four cards in both minors you open 1♦.
