Attitude Signals in Bridge - with Curt Soloff

[@penelopejoyce811]

Are the arritude response signals the same in Acol bridge?

[@sbpierce9987]

Yep. Although there are other signalling methods.

Stay tuned! We have some more videos planned on this topic. Thanks for watching

What about playing the 8h instead of 9h?

[@curtsoloff4519]

h8 is the one card you never want to play here, because it is the most ambiguous... always signal as clearly as your cards allow

[@indranichowdhury1104]

Thanks. But what about a card as high as J in place of 9. Would I still play that instead of 8? Also in a separate question in a lead from QJ43 should I lead Q or J?

[@curtsoloff4519]

@@indranichowdhury1104 You signal with the highest card you can afford. Avoid using a card that might take a trick for a signal. Here, since you hold both 9 and 8, they are equals. If you are leading an honor from QJxx then lead the Q, as the lead of the J promises the T and denies the Q. Against NT lead small, not an honor, since you are missing both the T and 9.

Why High to encourage rather than low

[@curtsoloff4519]

This is standard carding. Other methods are available as agreed by partnerships.
