5 card majors, 2/1 forcing to game except 1-2.
14-16 NT non-vul, often open 11, sometimes 10. 15-17 NT vul, may open with 11 in 1st seat, may open 1 with 11 in 2nd seat. NV preempts light especially 1st seat. Wide range preempts if partner is a PH. |
Vs suits: 3 from even, low from odd, top of 2
Vs NT: Attitude. K asks for unblock or UD count. Vs All: 2nd highest from touching honors from 3+ except dummy's or partner's suit. May lead J from KQJ or A from AK vs NT. |
Upside-Down Count and Attitude.
Usually suit preference in trumps and when attitude not relevant. Count usually only in hold-up situations. Rev Smith vs. NT at trick 2 - low card encourages continuation of opening lead suit. |
