Query on inverted minors

[badderzboy]

Thanks Whereeagles for your comments.

 

Partner can bid with a 4 card major but not a 5 card major

 

I've amended the scheme to the following :-

 

 

1♣-2♣!-2♦!

No 4 card major - Unbalanced - may have 4 diamonds or Weak in clubs - would pass a min raise to 3♣

 

Partner can stopper ask with 2♥/♠

 

Partner should bid 3♣ rather than 3♦ with minimum 10/11 hand

 

2NT is bal 10/11 by responder with o/s suits stopped.

3NT is bal 12/13

 

1♣-2♣!-2♥

Can have 4 ♦s.

 

4 card suit weak hand 12-14 or weak suit if 15+ at most 1 of AKQ in suit unbalanced 5431 or more unbalanced otherwise would bid NT

 

(i) ptr can a higher suit at 2 level to check for 4144

(ii) 3♣ or 3♥ is a limit raise to 3 level if 44 10/11

(iii) 3♠ stopper ask / long suit trial bid denies AK in suit

(iv) Game raise to 4♥

(v) 4♦ RKCB ask

(vi)2NT is bal 10/11 by responder with o/s suits stopped.

(vii)3NT is bal 12/13

 

1♣-2♣!-2♠

 

4 card suit weak hand 12-14 or weak suit if 15+ at most 1 of AKQ in suit unbalanced 5431 or more unbalanced otherwise would bid NT

 

(i) ptr can a higher suit at 2 level to check for 4441

(ii) 3♣ or 3♠ is a limit raise to 3 level if 44 10/11

(iii) 3♥stopper ask / long suit trial bid denies AK in suit

(iv) Game raise to 4♠

(v) 4♦ RKCB ask

(vi)2NT is bal 10/11 by responder with o/s suits stopped.

(vii)3NT is bal 12/13

 

1♣-2♣!-2NT Bal 15-16 pt hand 3♣ is now stayman

 

1♣-2♣!-3♣ is weak 11-14 no o/s 4 card suit

 

1♣-2♣!-3♥/♠ Unbalanced - Good hand 15+ good suit at 2 of AKQ in suit

 

(v) 4♦ RKCB ask

 

(vi) 3NT is bal 10/11 by responder with o/s suits stopped.

 

 

 

1♣-2♣!-3NT Bal 18-19 pt hand 4♣ is now stayman / 4♦ RKCB in ♣'s, 4HS ExRKCB?

 

1♣-2♣!-4♣ is strong 15+ forcing to 4NT no o/s 4 card suit unbalanced bid cue-bid up line or 4♦ RKCB

 

Any constructive comments out there?

Seems ok, but you didn't yet 'fix' the 1♣-2♣-3♣ problem :) Maybe make the 3♣ rebid 13-14 (gf), and with 11-12 bid 1♣-2♣-2♦ ?
