And this is last part of 3rd Color Relay, at least for now. 1 D - 1 Sp 2 D - 2 H * 3 rd color relay 2 Sp 3 Card Sp support Minimum Hand 2 NT Controls in Unbid Suits 3 Cl Control Maximum Hand 3 D 6 Card Suit Minimum Hand 3 H Control Maximum Hand 3 Sp 3 Card Sp support Maximum Hand Well that's it for now, I am always open for suggestions and / or improvements ;D I know it's not perfect but it beats out a lot of other stuff ;)

Ok here is second part ;D 1 CL- 1 SP 2 CL- 2 D * 3rd Color Relay 2 H Control Minimum Hand 2 Sp 3 Card SP support Minimum Hand 2 NT Controls in unbid 2 suits 3 CL 6 Card club suit Minimum hand 3 D Control Maximum Hand 3 H Control Maximum Hand 3 SP 3 Card Sp support Maximum Hand One more to follow after this 8)

A little bit tougher, but also very handy especially in IMPS. Will get y too some hard to reach games and slams. 1 CL - 1 H 2 Cl - 2 D * which is 3 rd suit relay 2 H 3 Card H support Minimum hand 2 Sp Control Minimum hand 2 NT Controls in unbid suits 3 CL 6 Card suit Minimum 3 D Control Maximum hand 3 H 3 Card H support Maximum hand 3 Sp Control Maximum hand More to come ;D

It is fairly simple, but can work great. I will put it up. 1 NT- 2Cl 2 D - 2 SP= Balanced GF hand 2 NT 3-3-4-3 or 3-3-3-4 3 CL 5+ Clubs 3 D 5+ Diamonds 3 H 3-2-4-4 3 SP 2-3-4-4 3 NT 2-2-4-5 or 2-2-5-4 Let me know if y like it, or if y have some ideas ;D

Is anybody interested in Minorsuitasking after 1NT- 2 CL- 2 D ? You will be losing out on garbage stayman but I find it a really neat and very handy convention. Will get y to very good spots, especially slams and 5 of a minor suit contracts. ;D

And I also would like too know if anybody has played the canape overcalls and find out what they think about it ;)

I was wondering if anyone has any material about the Italian Canape overcalls. I have a hard time finding anything about it ??? Thx ;)

Just ask me for Help running a tourney. I am fairly new director but I like to help out where I can ;D Just ask me.

Most people are trying real hard to teach y a system that mite give you an advantage over the opps because they are not familiar with that system. But how are y going to do that if y don't know, yet B) , how to win bridge defending a hand. Which is about 50% of the time. And how about the 25% of the time y r declaring a hand. Learn that first and you'll win at bridge without going into many many pages of system notes y forget half the time anyhow :P . I am not doing this to get rich but to make sure people learn the rite parts of the game first. E-mail me with questions or post em here.

I think it is a great idea. I signed up too. Am mostly interested in the younger generation. Since they don't seem to get a lot of help from other places. :-

;D I think it is a great idea. From now on I will let my tournamentplayers know. I am sure they will be happy about that.

Having a director is a must, for replacing all that r stuck, lost connection etc. And having a 2 nd or even a 3rd one around is nice but I found out that running a 40 table tourney by myself isn't all that hard but it is unclocked. If is going to be clocked and y r making adjustments, I think y need an additonal director. Sometimes I just have to limit my tourney because I can't find another director but it is getting better B)

;D I agree with Gweny. I am a new director and my biggest problem seems to be players who after 2 or 3 hands see, or think, they have a bad score and they leave having me or my other directors scrambling to find subs, who in all reality have no chance of winning. So a list wud help, even tho sometimes they have a good reason to leave, but repeat offenders get put in list and maybe be shared with all directors.

Personally I don't think it matters which one y play. As long as y play Minorwood, in which 4 of a minor is RKC for that minor, y will never get in trouble since 4 NT is then only RKC for the majors, and y don't have to be afraid of bypassing the save level of a minor suit contract. ;D[pre][/pre][shadow=red,left][/shadow]
