Stephen Tu Posted August 4, 2017 Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 1d-2c-?no good way to show 18-19 balanced.2nt shows minimum, 3nt shows some unwieldy wide range. 4nt is rkc for clubs.If bid 2nt, and raise 3nt to 4nt, still shows the 11-14 range instead of 18+.

If you rebid 2NT, then raise 3NT to 6NT, is it still 11-14? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve2005 Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 What does 1D-2C-2N show for Gib?A lot of people play as 12-14 or 18-19 but Gib doesn't show split ranges sometimes. A natural raise at some point to 4N seems the only way. Slam try with 11-14 is optimistic lol.Is there the same problem with 1D-2D-2N?

jdonn Posted August 5, 2017 Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 1♦ 2♣ in general does need to be revamped. The important thing for users to currently know is that it says 2♣ is game forcing, but it isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
