LEAD WITH THE ACES

- McMeel Syndicatio­n for UFS

ANSWER: AMichaels cue-bid of two hearts, to show spades and a minor, should show more than this. If you did not catch a spade fit, you would be forcing your side to the three-level. Having said that, bidding one spade is consistent with your values and might let you bid your clubs later. But might it get partner on lead and see him do something foolish? Maybe the Michaels cue-bid is best when non-vulnerable.
