vs NT: 3rd/5th in partner's suit (unless raised, then top from 3 small) vs NT: K is power lead and A asks for attitude. vs NT: standard honor leads vs suits: 3rd from even or three, lowest from odd, but will lead top from nothing in partner's raised suit. suit preference from known long suits (6-7 card preempts) vs suits: A from AKx(+) except against 5-level or higher, or AK doubleton, or ready to switch to a side singleton. |
Upside Down Count and Attitude Signals.
Signaling priority normally: Attitude, Count, Suit-Pref (may vary with logic). Count in partner's suit if dummy wins trick-1 vs NT. Suit preference when dummy has a singleton, middle is ambiguous (no clear preference) - unless necessity to tap dummy is obvious for both. Suit-pref in trumps if we think pd needs it. |
