Your right-hand opponent opens
one of a major and you have at least
5-5 in the minors with decent val-
ues. How do you tell partner?
You make a two-no-trump jump
overcall — the Unusual No-Trump.
(Overcalling one of a minor with
two no-trump shows at least 5-5 in
the two lowest unbid suits: hearts
and the other minor.)
This is one of my least favorite con-
ventions! You are competing in the
minors when the opponents hold the
majors. If you lose the auction,
which is common, you have given
their declarer a road map. But occa-
sionally, you will find a worthwhile
sacrifice or, if your side has the bal-
ance of power, buy the contract —
as in this deal.
After North uses the Unfisual No-
Trump, what should South do?
Three no-trump is wrong — North
is unlikely to win nine quick tricks.
Instead, since North will have good
suits, especially at the prevailing
vulnerability, South should take a
shot at five diamonds.
This is a strange deal. If West leads
the spade king, declarer does best to
duck, cutting the defensive commu-
nications. If South wins the first
trick and plays on trumps, though,
East should twice hold up his ace.
Then South must resist the tempta-
tion to unblock the king-jack of
clubs. If he does unblock, East will
win the third diamond, put his part-
ner in with a spade, and receive a
club ruff. But if declarer calmly
leads a third trump, East has no
riposte.
However, if West leads the heart
king, South wins and takes two
rounds of trumps, East ducking.
Now South must unblock his club
honors before playing a third trump!
