| 2/1 game forcing, 5 card majors, longer minor (usually), we open almost all 11 counts, 14-16 NT when non-vulnerable 1st-3rd chair, light reverses (sometimes based mostly on shape), can be very light 3rd chair openings, 1st seat favorable 3-level preempts very light, 1NT could have 5-card Major or 6-card minor, we can respond very light

Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand
| Vs Suits: 3rd/low, may lead attitude when leading a raised suit, A from AK, lead of K from AK and switch shows singleton
Vs NT: 4th best vs NT from interest, K power lead, Rusinow in 4+ card suits In middle of hand typically lead attitude (doesn't apply if we've already played any card in the suit) and 9s or 10s show 0 or 2 higher |
Defensive Signals
| upside down count and attitude, suit preference vs NT in smith situations, suit preference in trump suit, default count on declarer's lead, standard present count |
