Bbradley62 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 I hope I'm putting this in the correct forum. Under Stock Convention Cards, the BBO Advanced 1.3 card includes this explanation for the 3N bid:"Signoff. running clubs; d/h stops; short spades". I presume that is supposed to be running diamonds, with c/h stops. Also, the descriptions of 1x-1y-3N are not quite consistent. They are:1♣-1♦-3N: Non-forcing, ♣ source of Tricks.1♣-1♥-3N: Signoff. running c; short h.1♣-1♠-3N: Signoff. running c; d/h stops; short spades.1♦-1♥-3N: Signoff. running d; short in h.1♦-1♠-3N: Signoff. running clubs[sic]; d[sic]/h stops; short spades. If bidding 3N over 1S shows stops in the two unbid suits, doesn't bidding 3N over 1H or 1D also show that? Is the suit-quality standard different for 1C-1D-3N than for 1m-1M-3N, or does "source of Tricks" = "running"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
