Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand

Vs NT: 2/4th (top or 2nd from xxx; second from Hxx). Rusinow through the 8 - not in partner’s suit (partner’s suit is 5+), not in Dummy’s Suit (5+)

Middle of the hand, attitude-based 4th best

Defensive Signals

UDCA
Standard Remainder Count
No Smith vs. NT - SP instead
Attitude 1st priority, then count, then SP

Against suits, if we have shown 5+ cards in a suit and are signalling, middle is encouraging, high is high suit preference, low is low suit preference
