drdlittle Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Can anyone provide me with a detailed description of the Orient Bidding System? I would like to read more about it but can only find general information on "The Bridgeguys" site. Thanks for any assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrecisionL Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 http://replay.waybackmachine.org/20020224061120/http://www.geocities.com/orient-bidding/Introduction.html Good luck The Original geocities site is no longer on the web. This is not a good system as every 1-level bid is artificial and shows only hcp, distribution is King! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not a good system as every 1-level bid is artificial and shows only hcp, distribution is King! Yes every1-level bid is artificial. "it shows only HCP" is wrong" Total working point shown in opening bidis Point+Distribution so say if opener bid 1!S...say Working point + distribution total is 18-19 points.it does not say that suite is Spade... Suite is revealed later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilG007 Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 Personally,I would avoid playing this system altogether Stick to what's been triedand trusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampyr Posted May 11, 2016 Report Share Posted May 11, 2016 I think that we have all, in our teens and early twenties, mentally invented and maybe even tried this system. I think that it would be a lot of fun, so long as you didn't care about results. This would probably be the standard system if that guy who is proposing all kinds of changes got his way with respect to eliminating the ranks of suits, as there would be lots of room to start relays.
