- Question
1
How should you at North respond to your partner's "double for takeout" of the opposition's opening bid, noting that West has supported his partner with a bid of 2D? Either of the Major suits seems acceptable and preferable, so how do you tell your partner this?

Answer
Well, you're also strong, having an opening hand. So tell your partner this by bidding the opponent's suit (a Cue bid)

The opening (enemy) bidder at East raises to 4 diamonds! Have a quick look at South's hand: can you tell me what South ought to bid?
