jillybean Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 (1♦) X (2♦) P(P) 2N (P) ? 2♦ competitive. How many people play systems on here, is there a North American standard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siegmund Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Systems on doesnt seem to make much sense, since most hands worth Stayman or a transfer would have coughed up a 2H or 2S bid over 2D. I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it, since it's very possible to play bridge for 20 years and never see this auction. (I haven't.) Makes me think I should find a more frequent meaning for the 2NT call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogerclee Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I would think everything is natural NF, and 3D is like stayman. Definitely good to talk about this auction, I doubt most expert partnerships have an agreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aguahombre Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 With no second double from partner, and no responsive double from my hand, I don't think looking for a fit with crap and 4-4 majors would be a good idea. I vote for everything natural, except maybe a real dog with 5-5 majors could try 3D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 I would think everything is natural NF, and 3D is like stayman. Definitely good to talk about this auction, I doubt most expert partnerships have an agreement. I actually have one for 1NT rebids (sys ON if pard acted his 1st turn, OFF otherwise), although for this situation in particular I'd have to see that as a meta-agreement.
