TIP OF THE DAY
WHICH SUIT TO OPEN
J 9 6 4 2 K Q J 6 5 8 A J
With equal length suits of 5 cards or 6 cards open the higher ranking suit first. It is the rank of the suit that is important not the quality. On this hand it might be tempting to open 1 because the hearts are better but it is correct to open 1.
If we opened 1 and partner replied with 1NT, 2 or 2 we would not be able to show the spades because 2 would be a 'New Suit Above the Barrier' (a 'reverse') promising 16+ points. If we open 1 there is no problem as a 2 rebid is below the barrier.
