By Val Rhead<\/em><\/p>\n

What is a pre-emptive bid? It is a bid of a long suit that is primarily used for defensive purposes. The aim is to make it difficult for opponents to reach their optimum contract, because they have lost bidding room.<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

The pre-emptive bid may be an opening bid or an overcall and usually contains a strong suit. It starts with the Weak-Two bid that usually contains six cards, a Weak-Three bid that usually contains seven cards, a Weak-Four bid which usually contains an 8-card suit, and a Weak-Five bid of a minor suit which usually contains 9 cards. According to the 7th Edition of the Encyclopedia of Bridge (Page 256,) with modern Bridge players, anything goes.<\/p>\n

Other things to consider when making pre-emptive bids include the position of the hand at the table. Some players prefer using this convention when in third position, or not vulnerable, et cetera.<\/p>\n

The following hand displays an example of a hand that is opened with a Weak-Two bid. This bid has the additional purpose of describing the hand. It usually promises a 6-card suit of a defined quality such as the honour cards are mostly in the bid suit.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

(a) In this hand, your partner, who has a 6-card Spade suit, and 11 points, including 2 length points, opens with a pre-emptive bid of 2 Spades. You have 12 points. You do not have enough to bid 4 Spades for a game contract. You do, however, have 3 Spades and can raise your partner\u2019s bid to 3 Spades. You will not bid again. Although an opening bid plus an opening bid usually is enough to bid a game contract, your partner is bidding a WEAK-TWO BID. He is not bidding a full opening bid. He is WEAK. He will not bid again. However, your Three Spade Bid may be enough to keep your opponents out of a contract. Even if you do go down a trick or two, non-vulnerable, it will likely give you a better score than if you had let your opponents bid their own contract.<\/p>\n

(b) However, if your hand in the South also held another Ace, displacing one of the small cards, its total point count would now be 16 points which would be enough to raise the partnership\u2019s total point count to 26. You could then raise the bid to the game level immediately, Four Spades.
\nAnd remember, if partner bids a Weak-Two bid, a Weak-Three bid, a Weak-Four bid, or a Weak-Five bid, they are all weak? You may raise to the three level with three-card support in trump but don\u2019t respond with a game unless you have at least sixteen points.<\/p>\n
