Simplified Meckwell


Recommended Posts

Does anybody play a simplified version of Rodwell - Meckstroth system. This is a very interesting system

1 NT 14-16 Balanced.

1C 17+ Balanced or 16+ Unbalanced

1M 12-15 5-card

2C 12-15 6-card

2D 12-15 4414 4315 3415

1D 12-15 Everything else (2 Card minimum diamonds 12-13 Balanced-Semi Balanced or 4+ Diamonds 12-15 unbalanced)

2M Weak

 

Unfortunately they have a very sophisticated system which changes with vulnerability and 3rd position 4th position. I would like to try a simpler version if possible.

I would recommend starting off with Meckwell-Lite (a simple search should get you sufficient hits). AFAIK, there aren't too many vulnerability / seat based changes except for say always 15-17 in 4th seat and also 3rd seat vulnerable.

 

When you are more comfortable, you can consider lowering the requirement for the non-1 openings to 11 or even 10 (with compensating shape).
