Precision
Initial responses to any opening may be 0+ hcp 1 ![]() 1 ![]() ![]() ![]() 1M (1st & 2nd)= 5+. 1NT NF. All 2/1's ART (see above) 1NT response could be heavy (11/12-) or light (especially NV) 1NT (5M frequent) = 14-16 1,2,3nv, 15-17 3rd v & 4th 2 ![]() ![]() ![]() 2 ![]() 2M = 4-10 HCP, usually 6 cards 3x opening may be very light at favorable |
4th best vs. all (NT may lead high or 2nd from xxxx)
Standard honors vs. all (vs suits: king from both AK and KQ) 4th in middle of hand if we're trying to give count, but attitude leads more frequent. |
Upside-down count and attitude
Standard present count Trump suit preference Smith vs NT (high encourages opening lead) but suit pref when holding is known Priority is att, count, suit pref, but is highly context-dependent. Tend to give suit pref when dummy has stiff in suit contracts. |
