Bids that Require Advance Preparation
2 = Weak two in a major or 20-21 balanced
2  /2 = Two suited preempt, /+a minor.
2NT = Two suited preempt, minors. 3NT = Preempt in a minor 4  /4 = Good 4/4 opening |
General Bidding Style
| 2/1 game forcing.
5-card Majors, 15-17 NT (including good 14), better minor. We open most 5-card majors with 11 HCP; unbalanced hands possibly with 10 HCP. May respond with a very weak hand. NV preempts may be quite light. Wide range preempts in 3rd seat. |
Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand
| Vs suits: Standard honor leads. 3rd/5th.
Vs NT: Standard honor leads. Top from a suit with only small cards. Otherwise 4th best. Vs Both: A from AK. Attitude switch (low is encouraging). High from 3 small in partner's raised suit, otherwise 3rd. |
Defensive Signals
| Standard count and attitude.
Signalling priority is Attitude, Count, Suit Preference. First discard is Lavinthal, subsequent discards are upside-down. Reverse Smith vs NT: Low cards in declarer's first suit encourage the opening lead suit if attitude to opening lead suit is not known. |
