2NT is 20-21 right?What is the reason to open this 19HCP hand with 2NT? Very good quality?

Actually, I learned InvMin 2D as 10+. What is the common treatment? Yes, not knowing there is GF value, makes it difficult for West to decide on slam. Any better solutions?

Does this make any sense? 1♦-2♦ (InvMin) 2♥(Control up the ladder) - 3♣ 4NT(0314 in ♦) - 5♥ 6♦(or 6NT)

Dealer: South, Vul: None [hv=pc=n&s=s96432haq7d4c8765&w=sakjthk2daqj8cjt9&n=s85ht8654dt92cq32&e=sq7hj93dk7653cak4]399|300[/hv]

Thank you, Antrax! Yes, many ways to do cuebidding and that requires lots of experience I think...

Thank you for all the answers. Will write bidding sequences as you recommend, ArtK78 B-)

Thank you, ArtK78! And what about 1NT(N)-2C(E)-4D(S)? Is it Texas?

What is the meaning of 1NT(N)-3D(E)-4D(S)?

I am reading that Texas Transfers are on after interference upto 3C. Is it only about preeempts? What about 1NT(N)-2C(E)-4D(S)? Is it Texas?

Thank you for the answers. Antrax: "both sides will begin cue bidding their way to 6♣" Can you give me details on this please? Aguahombre, yes, that's the easiest. It it reasonable, too?

Dealer: WEst Vul: Both [hv=pc=n&s=saq864hdkj42caj75&w=s95hkt42daq97ct43&n=sj7haj9876dckq982&e=skt32hq53dt8653c6]399|300[/hv] What is the easiest way to reach 6C here?

Thank you, all. Of all the ideas here I like Gerber best :) I will post another Slam Hand now, more difficult, I think but hope to have a simple solution for it, too ;)

Thank you, eagles123 and BillHiggin B-) This is Bergen idea, right? Less than 6HCP, bid 4 with 5-card support and 3 with 4-card support. Just in case I bid 2Spades with 5-3-3-2, shall I raise to 4 after partner invited by bidding 3S?

This does help a lot! Thank you, wyman, ArtK78, TylerE. I'll be back to this topic with examples later ;)

Sorry, mistake! My partner opened 1S. I have Jxxxx is Spades, 4High card points. Should I raise if we are vulnerable? Non-vulnerable? If my hand is 5-2-4-2? 5-3-1-4? 5-3-3-2? 5-0-4-4?

How good is opening NT with less than 15? Part of what system is that?

Thank you for all of the answers! Does rule of 20 apply to hands which are not 2-suited?

5-card support Jxxx 4HCP Vul or Non-Vul 5-3-3-2, 5-4-3-1, 5-4-4-0, 5-4-2-2

Wank: "just play bids non-forcing, double take-out " Where can I get well-written details on this, please?

Lebensohl works only over natural overcalls, right? What if opps use Capp, DONT?

Very common situation, right? Please recommend best sources on Internet. Thank you!

Dealer: East Vul: N/S [hv=pc=n&s=sj5ht63dj986cak62&w=s9haj842dak52cqj7&n=sk82hq75dqt43c983&e=saqt7643hk9d7ct54]399|300[/hv]

Dealer: North Vul:none Looks easy but I'd like to hear how experts handle hands like this, please [hv=pc=n&s=saj985hj97dj65cj5&w=sk4haq5432d87ca64&n=sqt2ht8dat3ckqt72&e=s763hk6dkq942c983]399|300[/hv]

Thank you, ArtK78 :)

Thank you! What about 1NT-2D-2H-4NT Opener has options of Pass, 6H, 6NT. Is there also option of 5H meaning that we have no slam but I'd rather play in Hearts than in NT even though I need to go to a higher level?
