Lobowolf Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I thought it might be interesting to see what systems people are using in this thing. So, for those who agree and/or are willing to share, I created this thread. If anyone wants to share a brief summary, please add on. Bob and I use a Precision + 2/1 hybrid with variable NT and transfer positives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnasher Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 15-17, five-card majors, unbalanced 1♦.1♣ is clubs, balanced or any game-force; with transfer responses.Lots of system that seemed like a good idea at the time but which we can barely remember.

TimG Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Canape Churchill with strong NT. (Frequent canape by opener, no strong forcing opening, almost entirely natural.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siegmund Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 SA with custom toys. Majors-first oriented gadgets shamelessly lifted from Matula-style Polish Club. The first batch of hands looked challenging to bid in any system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 saying that we played its saying to much, but Codo & me participated with SEF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant590 Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Modified unbalanced diamond base with (almost)2/1 GF and plenty of bad judgement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecalm Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Precision based on Greco Hampson. I feel that the hands were more about judgement than system though. We had one misunderstanding but all other suboptimal results are due to judgment calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TylerE Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 2/1, 15-17NT, 2=4=5=5 openings (short club) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachy Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 2/1 [always GF], 12-14NT, 4-suit transfers, and all the normal gadgets (Texas, Puppet, Lebensohl 2 places, BWS for reverse, NMF, Landy, 2H bust on 2C opening, modified Ogust etc etc nothing unusual) I was amazed to see my partner and me leading the pack, for now. We had three boards where we made a mistake in judgment, nothing to do with system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecalm Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Precision based on Greco Hampson. based on meckwell? Well, as I was unable to get access to oryginal Meckwell simplified notes nor GH notes I just went through all the hands played by Meckwell and GH in vugraph, made ton of notes and then put the system based on those. I added some stuff I found in cc's of pairs which plays those system (american juniors for example) and some stuff which I wasn't able to engineer from vugraph was filled by my/my pd's inventions.So yeah basically it's based on both Meckwell and GH system but bidding after 1♣ is based on 1♥ = 8-11 etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mbodell Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Strong club with a mini NT in first two seats Nice! We chickened out and dropped our 10-12 nt that we normally play in 3rd seat any and 1st/2nd white as we felt that the preemptive effect would not be favorable to the conditions of contest. We are playing a strong ♣ with transfer oriented symmetric relay positive responses, 12-14 nt w/ keri, and 2/1 limited openers with Gazilli.

Wackojack Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Memory impaired strong club system devised by partner (Flycycle) and (so it seems) still under construction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayin801 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Additional question for those in the contest: how many pairs are established partnerships and are familiar with the system they are using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
