Almost none-stripped down version of Beatty-Stewart methods.
1m-2H is bal inv, inc other minor or mixed raise
1c could be 2 if 4=4=3=2

General Bidding Style

Basic 2/1. Open most balanced 12's, few balanced 11's but will open light with unbalanced hands with shape.
Preempts are vul. and position based. Weak 2's almost always 6 vul, occasionally 5 nv.

Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand

3/5 vs suits, 4th vs Nt (2nd best optional from bad holdings) Rusinow vs NT from 4+. 0/2 after trick 1 vs all.

Defensive Signals

standard, but SP 1 vs suits except on AK lead
Except as above, priority is Att, count, SP
Signal fairly frequently early in the hand, then as needed
