2/1 2: GF Nat or bal OR 3-c LR. Can be as few as two. 1M-2c; 2x-2M: NF 2/1 2R is 5+-c.
1m-2: Rev Flannery: 5+4+ majors less than invitational. Opener's 2NT is minor get-out and 3 asks for further description. 1m-2: Mixed raise of the minor. We play transfers after our major opening or overcall is doubled. A transfer into the major is constructive at the 2-lvl and shows a high honor at the 3+ level. Our 1 opening may be as few as 2 and can have longer diamonds. Transfers over 1. Vs Strong 1&2NT or /(dead NT): 2m: Nat + higher, 2M: Nat, X: relay for single minor, both majors or better spades. Vs Weak NT (less than 15 top): 2: Majors, 2: One major, 2M: Nat 4+-c + 5+-c m. X: penalty w 1st subsequent X take-out. 2NT & 3-lvl: Transfers w minors wide-ranging and majors invitational. |
2/1, 1NT semi-forcing,
1 can be 2-c with transfers over 1 opening when opps overcall 1 over our 1m opening, 1 shows <4 , dbl = 4/5 , 2 of openers minor is inverted and 2 shows 6+ normally 5c hcp. 14+-17 1NT may include a 5-c major or a 6-c minor. We open almost all 12s and many shapely 11s. One-level overcalls or take-out doubles can be light, but 2-lvl overcalls are usually good hands. Pre-empts are somewhat wide-ranging. Weak Two may be occasionally be 5-c and 2 may include a 4-c major. If our major is doubled for take-out or neg, we play transfers. |

From known long suit: Middle: Interest or no preference, High or Low: Suit preference. @ NT: If honor wins in dummy w card attitude to adjoining honor.
