Kungsgeten Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 After responder has shown a positive response to our Swedish Club opening we have many ways of limiting responders hand. We play the same structure when responder is a passed hand, but now he obviously can not have 12+ hcp so he's in the 8-11 range. When should responder show a max? Examples: - When to cue bid instead of bidding non-serious 3NT?- After 1C-1M; 2D (shows fit) we normally play that 2H shows 12+. What should it be when responder is a passed hand? One idea I had is that responder has 6-7(8) QP when showing extras. What do you think of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix214 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 For me the usual rules in these situation follow as - Do I regret making my bid before, and how much I have promised before hand. I figure Most likely control rich hands will be max - Although im not sure AKQ is a max, in those situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straube Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Unless you have a method for identifying specific cards, I would not use QPs. I would just divide my 8-11 between minimum and maximum, making adjustments for controls, shape, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
