Summary of all Easier bids After a Jacoby Transfer to Spades
First read this post: Introducing Jacoby Transfers.
Then read this post: Jacoby Transfers - Completing the Transfer
This post combines several posts together. To look at the different responses individually, read the following posts:
Pass, 2NT or 3NT after a Jacoby Transfer (Spades)
Rebidding Pass, Inviting Game or Bidding Game after a Jacoby Transfer (Spades)
Remember when you went through Jacoby to transfer to your major you showed a FIVE card suit. If you just have a five card suit your next bid should be either Pass (with a weak hand) or some number of NT to show your point count. There is NO NEED to bid the major again. You showed Partner you had five of them when you transferred.
If you have SIX in the major you know you have a fit. Partner must have at least two cards in the suit to open NT. Therefore your next bid should either be Pass (with a weak hand) or some number of the major to show your values.
Here is a table that shows some of your responses with a five and six card ♠ suit. This assumes Partner has opened the bidding 1NT and you bid 2♥ which forced Partner to bid 2♠. Now it is your bid:
On each of the following hands your Partner opened the bidding 1NT. You bid 2♥ (transfer to ♠) which forced Partner to bid 2♠. Partner then bid 2♠ like they should. It is your turn to bid. What will you bid?
