Are there any symmetric relay available? We play 2C opening with 5 Card ♣ and 4 card Major. 2♦ is a transfer to ♥ and 2♥ is transfer to ♠ Trying to explore if symmetric relay can be tried.
As a learner of KK Relay (Just started after reading the book) I am not so much worried about alerts and explanation. However I have some basic questions to clear my doubt. I am sure many of you here can help me. Take this example hand ♠AK10xx ♥Jxx ♦xxx ♣xx ♠QJxx ♥- ♦AKJ10 ♣AKJ104 Asker starts DCB after resolving the shape and finding out three controls with partner. Partner stops at first step and again stops at first step in response to the second ask. How can asker find out now, whether ♠ AK is missing or not?
Is it legal to play 2♦️ Response over 1M opening as non forcing? The question is in Precision context. As 2♣️ can be played as GF relay, on any GF hand, 2♦️ or 2❤️ over 1♠️ can be played non forcing or semi forcing (8-11 HCP)
Anyone heard about something like Special RKC response where trump Ace is considered 1.5 key cards and trump K is considered 0.5 keycard? Seems to be interesting!
Thanks all for really valuable suggestions. I really appreciate, and also fully agree with you all. Just to let you know, I was playing with someone with whom we didn’t have any prior agreement on 4-4-4-1 hands or any asking bids etc. so the bidding went 1♣️-1NT-2♦️-2♥️-4♥️ The best I could do was to use kickback (we had agreed on that)
I had the following hand last night ♠️- QJxx ♥️- Jxxx ♦️- x ♣️ - AKQx Partner opened 1♣️ Precision and ❤️ Was agreed as trumps. I initiated 4♠️ Kickback 4♠️-4NT (0/3) 5♣️- 5♦️(Trump Q + ♦️K) Now I can’t be sure if partner has ♠️K and can’t find it without committing to 6 level. May be ♠️AK is missing Any suggestions? Of course there are other asking bids can be employed to get a much better result, but the point here is on Kickback only
You may try Jack Bridge. However the best is Bridge Baron (version 29 now). You can configure your Precision system to your liking. Sadly, there is no way you can develop your own sequences, let’s say asking bids, for example.
Can we get a few examples of how after 1♣-1♥/♠-1NT auction, the control bidder moves on? You mentioned something about "Reverse Asking Bids" or "Omega Bids" a long time ago. Kindly elaborate with some examples.
I have somewhere your old notes I would like to learn more about your minimum relay method and the modified SAB-3. CAB for responder’s suit and not TAB? I am finding it interesting
Since ages, There is almost no posts on this exotic subject. Has it died now? I still find the idea extremely exciting but sadly do not see much interests and popularity among all levels of bridge players
