Playing matchpoints. Both you and the Opponents are vulnerable.
Here is your hand:
♠J9
♥AKJ3
♦AK8
♣K542
You are Dealer. You decide to open the bidding 1♣. Both Opponents are silent throughout the auction. Partner says 1
♥.
What is your call?
Show Answer
4♥.
This shows about 19-21 points with four ♥.
You could also bid 2NT to show a balanced 18 or 19 point hand. But that would DENY having ♥ support. Which you have.
If Partner had responded 1♠ your bid would be 2NT.
