You are P1, the Forehand, and nobody has spoken yet: the first word of the bidding is yours.

What do you say?
Answer
Pass. The XXI and the XVIII at 2 each, four more Taroks at 1 each and the K
make a 12-count of 9, short of the Blind Solo’s 12. Piccolo wants exactly one card that must win a trick, and this hand holds several. Your pass is not final: if all four pass, you must play, and a count of 9 is the Call’s count.
Rule: The Blind Solo: 12 or more, counted before the six blind cards arrive. The Forehand may pass at the very start and still bid later.
