[inquiry]

Sergey sent in his answers today, too late to be included in the official voting poll. But for the record, he had some useful insights. For the most part he bid for the favorite bids anyway, so his votes would not change the over all results. Here is his answers.

Here are the answers:

07A. 3♠ - cue (below game-level). Slam is still possible N having xxx AKxxxx and dK + minor queen.

07B. 5♥ - NAT and forcing. If you play it as NF then you must pass. I dont think 5N will be choice of H/C slam. It shd be rather grand slam INV with D's as trumps (without 1st round cue in S).

07C. 4♣ - NAT 1-suiter (with (31)54 - splinter). And hope 4N from opener will be sign-off.

07D. 3♥ - hope partner will raise with hKx.

07E. 4♦ - 1-suiter, splinter. Partner can ask KC or show concentration (HH or Kx) in any major.

07F. 5♠ - voidwood. If partner responds 2KC next bid will be 6S: "partner, I have another solid suit. If your C's is 6-long (or 5-long and side singleton) bid 7C. If not - bid 7D.
