Hi All,

I'm trying to add Kokish Game Tries to my partnership agreements, and I'm writing the full possible answer, and having some doubts about some sequences, if you could help me on those I would TY all a lot.

(opp's are always silent)

1H-2H-3H --> what is the possible agreement on this, trump asking? what would be necessary to make a positive answer.

Passing the partscore of 3H, for sure must be GF but what would you likelly show here:

1H-2H-3S / 1H-2H-3NT / 1H-2H-4C / 1H-2H-4D

The same thing happens in the spade sequence

Is slam completlly out of the way when a simple raise is made by partner (21+6/9)?
1H-2H-4S --> Kickback Roman Keycard, so that we economise one bid?
And for the really positive thinking bid's
1H-2H-6H --> Not sure how this is possible but...
1H-2H-5H --> Grand slam force?

Should the bid for the SSGT (1H-2H-3level) have any sort of continuation?.
1H-2H-3C-?
Is there only two possible answers (3H or 4H)? or can we make
1H-2H-3C-3D --> and what would this mean...

Ty a lot for all the input
Pedro Gil

A possible agreement would be that this just asks for a maximum.

1H-2H-3S / 1H-2H-3NT / 1H-2H-4C / 1H-2H-4D

3S, 4C, 4D = splinter, slam interest
3NT = suggestion to play there, choice of games.

4S, 5C, 5D = exclusion for me, 4NT = keycards. Kickback would be fine, with 4NT exclusion for spades.
6H = to play, what else.
5H = yes.

You should discuss whether the short suit GT can be a slam try. If so, responder should cuebid with a suitable hand. 3D in your auction should be a counter gametry, presumably showing values there.

Interresting treatment, so you would use the 3 level for a splinter with no slam interrest and the 4 level for a splinter with slam possibility.

Ty a lot for the Input...
