Blackwood for the Kings
The Blackwood for the Kings is bid at 5 NT When the side has all key cards and the Queen of trump
They are different options for responding (make sure your pair is clear on which one it uses :
  • By level
    • 6 ♣ = 0 King
    • 6 ♦ =1 King
    • 6 ♥ = 2 Kings
  • 30/41
  • Naming the suit of the King economically : With 2 Kings you bid the grand slam
Make sure you agree with your partner. Kit recommends bidding the suit of your first King...
