North is opening this hand 1D, not 1C.


I usually sit North.

1♣ for me.

Also not an expert. so here's an intermediate's opinion.

Simplest is :
1C-1H (1S)
2C- key-card ask, king ask, 7C.

I'm not convinced about north rebidding 2C on such a poor suit, but I guess it's helpful to show partner you have 5 rather than 3.

I wouldn't argue with opener passing or rebidding 1NT. Over either of those it would be nice to have agreed what 2S (or 3S) would mean. A general game force seems reasonable, either planning to set trumps (probably clubs) or possibly rebid 3S to check for 3NT.

1C-1H (1S)
pass-2S
3D-4C
4D-4H
4S-4NT etc to 7C

3D showed a real suit, so also promised a real club suit.
4C set clubs as trumps
then cue-bids and 4NT RKCB.

Over a 1NT rebid from opener, can south just bid 3C as absolutely forcing? I think it should be. Then cue up the line, ace-ask and bid 7C.
