ochinko Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Unfav, IMPs. You have agreed on 2/1. You deal and open 1♣. LHO intervenes with 1♥, and your partned bids 2♦. How much force has his bid? Let's say RHO passes, you now bid 2NT, LHO passes, and partner raises to 3♦. What does this look like - sign off, invitation or forcing to game?

Gerben42 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Not forcing to game, just for 1 round. Reason: There is no forcing NT here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dicklont Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 Forcing for one round, 10+.The 3♦ rebid is done with a 10-12 hand. Many play 2♦ as non-forcing, 8-11 HCP. I don't like that treatment, it either messes up your negative double or your cuebid.I want the cuebid in to show support, not random strong hands.

Gerben42 Posted May 8, 2009 Report Share Posted May 8, 2009 I don't like that treatment, it either messes up your negative double or your cuebid. Either treatment is okay, strong bridge nations like Poland have NF freebids as standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 "Normal" for 2/1 is that 2♦ is just F1 in comp and the 3♦ rebid is NF as others have said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have enough experience with this to have an informed opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 F1. I know of no system where 2D is GF. Also, what common system you play, has nothing to do with whether 2D is forcing or not forcing because it is a matter of partnership agreement. Standard is F1, at least where I play, while NFB is playable if it was agreed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
