AyunuS Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 I thought forcing NT meant it was supposed to bid something, and it even does have a 3-card minor it can bid.

Bbradley62 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 It is clearly true that many of the humans who play robot dupes would pass 1NT with the North hand if GIB were sitting South. Maybe the description should be changed to semi-forcing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgi Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 It has a point, as passing hand which uses 1NT after major opening lefts opener to pass with 13 or less TP. Unpassed hand forces 100% opener if uses 1NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
