Bids that Require Advance Preparation
Over 1nt, 2 shows a 1 suited major. |
General Bidding Style
Fairly sound opening bids. Open nearly all 12 hcp hands. 11 with a 5 card or 10 with 5/5 possible. 1 /1 =5 (4 in 3rd), 1/1 =3 (diamonds only 3 if 4432). We can shade our opening bids in 3rd or 4th. 1nt=14+-18- it’s our first time playing together, so we’re winging it for any in depth agreements outside discussed system. |
Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand
| Rusinow honors vs nt (std in partner’s suit). Rusinow only from 4+ cards. 3/5 vs suits, 4th vs nt. In the middle, leads are either attitude or count. A from AK vs suits. King is power vs nt. |
Defensive Signals
| Upside down count and attitude. Rev smith vs NT. Our primary signal is attitude, then count, then s/p. In a suit contract when dummy is stiff, s/p is primary. In a known long suit, s/p may be primary depending on situation. We haven’t discussed much, so expert standard. Not every card is a signal. |
