2/1 based approach
Light openings and overcalls. We tend to open on good 10+ and shape and otherwise 12+ for balanced hands. 15-17 NT --- Our preemptive style is fairly standard. More sound when we are vulnerable. 3rd seat favorable anything goes. --- 3rd seat favorable anything goes for any opening and we are careful not to bury partner for opening. --- In competitive situations, we would bid when we have reason to. In other words we may not support partner right away on bad hands where a large majority will consider it automatic; We play transfers in competition over 1 ![]() ![]() 2NT in competition is usually forcing. DBLs in competition are usually not penalty if we haven't been able to define our hand to both shape and strength. DBL by the 3rd hand on a final contract has lead directing implications. |
4th vs. No Trump
3rd/low vs. suit att in supported suit --- in the middle of the hand low is for attitude --- Honors against NT are for Att. Top from sequence agains suits. 9/10 leads are 0/2 higher Variations: vs. NT the lead of unusual honor asks for unblock of the one directly below Only if we had bid suit, the K lead will be for count. vs. suit we vary to lead K from AK for count when we expect shape in declarer (or occasionally when dummy has shown specific shape) |
