| Opening 1NT may contain small singleton for hand types that typically may create difficult rebids 1345,3145,1444. 1m-(1h)-1s denies spades
5332 10HCP with good suits or 5431 with 10HCP may be opened |
| 2 over 1 with light openings especially NV
Openings : 1C = 3+…frequently bypass 1D with 4cM unless GF 1D = 3+ … open 1 D with 44 and 45 unless suit quality or easier rebid 1H = 5+ … 4+ in 3rd – 4th 1S = 5+ … 4+ in 3rd – 4th 1NT = 13+16 NV and 14+17 V…5cardM or 6cm are frequent, rebid problem offshape hands are possible, in 4th always 14+17 2C = 21-23 or GF any 2D/H/S = weak 2’s usually 6 card suits…could be 5 NV 2NT = 19+21…5card M frequent 3x = 7 or better than 2 3NT = Solid 7 car major 4M = 8 or better than 3 4NT = both minors -3rd suit opener maybe very weak based on a lead director. -When partner is a passed hand especially NV we are very aggressive in most situations and could be bidding on very little or preempt with good hands, psychs could happen but are rare. -Preempt agreements , aggressive but not crazy up to soundish regarding the vulnerability , 3 is better than 2 and 4 is better than 3 type style and we tend to open 1 with a serious weak 2. A bit random on suit quality and honor location. In overcall a single jump is intermediate when we are Vul and others are still preemptive. -We are aggressive to respond at a 1 level opening bid - Our 2C over 1 of a Major opening could be short (possibly 0-1 in rare cases(1S2Cwith 3550 is not imposible), we also use 2c with balanced jacoby hands. - Jacoby 2NT Game forcing with a singleton, we use 2 tiered void showing. 1-3 is mixed . - Transfers over 1NT rebid - 1m – (1H)– we play 1S denies spades , 2m natural and 2H shows 6+ spades constructive + and 2S is a limit raise in partners minor 1m-(1S) we flip the meanings of 2om and 2H - in response to 1NT we bid 2c stayman a lot and have ways to sign off so we could stayman with a bad hand and 4Hand 5C for example, also 2d is a transfer to hearts or an invitational hand with 4s |
| 3rd/5th/attitude in the middle of the hand
rusinow not in partners or dummy's long suit or preemtors side suit or if preemptor is declarer |
| UDCA standard suit preference. Attitude then count, but sometimes count or attitude. Reverse smith against NT. We signal when we think it'll help our partner |
