gwnn Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 ss= single suiter. just in case someone else is wondering (it took me about 3 minutes). I don't like it because I like to know how long partner's major is. Of course, neither does Capp/Brozel/DONT/Lionel/etc show it so my opinion is not universally accepted. I nowadays like Multi-Landy or Meyerson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hog Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Is this over a weak NT or any NT. If 15-18, why have X as penalties? If over a weak NT why have ambiguous bids? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirate22 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Another variation on this theme is--- Try 2nd position opp 1n/t(no matter weak/strong) 2cl=stayman(asking pard have u a 4 card Major no=2d) also one has transfers example 2d=bid hts pard,2h=bid spades pard.but in 4th position one has stayman but no transfers.this does upset the applecart for the 1n/t openers.one has to remember ones position... pass pass 1n/t you are now in 2nd position,also pass 1n/t pass pass you are now 4th position having originally passed.One still has the option of the x=primarily penalty.in all positions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
