Five card Majors, Weak (12-14) NT, 2m/1M forcing to game.
We open almost all balanced hands with 12 HCP, and 11 HCP 5431 hands with a small singleton. Our overcalls tend to be sound. Our doubles of suit partscores tend to be for takeout, whether or not partner has bid. |
Rusinow honor leads versus suits, except for partner's and dummy's suits, or by a pre-emptor in a side suit.
Against suits we lead 3rd best from even, lowest from odd, but will lead high from 3 small in partner‘s raised suit. Against NT we lead 4th best from the Jack or 109 or better. |
We use standard carding.
Our signaling priority is Attitude, then Count, then Suit Preference. We try, though, to give the signal that will be most useful to partner. We sometimes give suit preference in the trump suit. |
